Who we are

In 2019, Medicines Discovery Catapult joined forces with Cystic Fibrosis Trust to form the Cystic Fibrosis Syndicate in Antimicrobial Resistance. The Syndicate expanded, welcoming LifeArc in a tripartite managing partnership. The CF Syndicate in AMR is a cross-sector initiative that brings together leading experts in CF/AMR from industry, academia, and the clinic with people with Cystic Fibrosis.

“People living with CF are particularly vulnerable to antimicrobial resistance. New antimicrobials that target infections caused by bugs commonly associated with lung infections in CF are urgently needed. We are delighted to announce this funding call aimed at stimulating new research and development into treatments with the potential to benefit people with CF.”

Dr Paula Sommer, Head of Research at Cystic Fibrosis Trust
