Abstract:
Following multiple warnings from governments and health organisations, there has been renewed investment, led by the public sector, in the discovery of novel antimicrobials to meet the challenge of rising levels of drug-resistant infection, particularly in the case of resistance to antibiotics. Initiatives have also been announced to support and enable the antibiotic discovery process. In January 2018, the Medicines Discovery Catapult, UK, hosted a symposium: Next Generation Antibiotics Discovery, to consider the latest initiatives and any remaining challenges to inform and guide the international research community and better focus resources to yield a novel class of antibiotic.

Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...
