Innovations in antimicrobial therapy are transforming how we combat antibiotic-resistant infections. Our novel therapeutic approach targets a broad spectrum of bacteria by mimicking natural iron transport systems and delivering toxic copper instead, disrupting multiple essential bacterial pathways at once. This multi-target mechanism eliminates the risk of resistance development while effectively killing dangerous pathogens, including drug-resistant strains such as MRSA and Streptococcus pneumoniae. In preclinical studies, the technology demonstrated rapid and potent antibacterial activity with strong tolerability. By overcoming one of the greatest challenges in modern medicine, this platform has the potential to improve treatment outcomes, reduce healthcare costs, and provide a powerful new tool in the fight against antibiotic resistance. Join us in advancing next-generation antimicrobial solutions designed to protect patients and address a critical global health threat.
This opportunity features Michael D. L. Johnson, PhD, Associate Professor, Immunobiology at the College of Medicine – Tucson at the University of Arizona, inventor and scientific lead behind the technology.
