A week or so ago, Prabha Fernandes (GARDP and National Biodefense Science Board), Peter Beyer (WHO) and I were involved in a discussion with Cesar Arias (AAC Chief Editor and Houston Methodist Hospital) about the state of the antibacterial pipeline as a companion to our recent Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy review. The podcast link is here and the YouTube video is below.

The discussion first talks about the WHO’s current roles in antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Next, the state of the antibacterial pipeline was discussed and finishes with some closing remarks around the future of antibacterial research.
