Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
While most public health efforts have been directed towards the COVID-19 pandemic in the last two years, it is imperative that we continue to address other public health challenges. Among these challenges is the crisis created by antibiotic resistance, which requires a comprehensive multipronged approach. An important consideration is the development of therapeutics with novel mechanisms. It is in this context that we are presenting this Special Issue of Antibiotics to review the progress on novel approaches to antimicrobial therapy and the prospects for new therapeutics for overcoming resistance to traditional antibiotics.
