Summary

Antibiotic resistance (AMR) is a complex process that occurs as bacteria adapt to the continuous presence of antibiotics resulting in new bacterial strains with that no longer respond to antibiotics treatments, making infections virtually untreatable and thus with increased risk of disease spread, severe illness and death. The SMARTgNOSTICS project proposes a holistic ?One Health? approach to the AMR problem through the development of devices/solutions to target bacteria, AMR genes and antibiotic residues across diverse fields that compose the AMR cycle: human and animal health, food safety and the environment. The goal is to develop point-of-care (POC) solutions that can be simultaneously "lab-on-a-chip" coupled with data acquisition and processing through Artificial Intelligence (AI), that provide integrated data for predictive analyses of future AMR genes and/or pathogens. This will provide an Early Warning System to control/monitor/prevent an upcoming ?superbug? pandemia
