Glad to have taken part in the WAAW National Scientific Symposium held on 18 & 19 November in Nairobi. I got to hear and see someone whose life was affected by AMR.

A new Gram-negative antibiotic from a novel chemical class! Gepotidacin is a triazaacenaphthylene antibiotic that inhibits bacterial DNA replication by interaction with DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV (similar target as quinolones, but different site). fiercepharma.com/pharma/gsk-ush…

The #GlobalAISummit2025 in Kigali was eye-opening! Powerful insights on AI’s role across sectors, need for infrastructure & access, and ethical use to prevent widening inequalities. Loved the idea: AI = African Intelligence As H.E. Paul Kagame said, Africa must lead, not follow!

🚨 This is Big! New GARDP research shows that people with multidrug-resistant infections in LMICs are not receiving the appropriate antibiotics because of large gaps in access. Improving access and developing new antibiotics must be a priority, 📖 Read the study 👇

🆕 Researchers at Cornell University identified an antibiotic, rifampin, that is 99.9% effective against Salmonella Typhi, the bacterium that causes #typhoid. The likelihood of encountering rifampin-resistant typhoid cases is less than 1 in every 1,000 cases, according to the findings.
