The people have spoken. Antibiotic resistance has been voted by the British public as the subject of the UK government’s £10 million ($17 million) Longitude Prize – an initiative aimed at tackling society’s greatest issues.
Competing teams will now have five years to create a cost-effective, accurate, rapid, and easy-to-use test for bacterial infections in order to win the prize.
