Infectious Diseases remain one of the greatest threats to global health. The rise of drug-resistant infections, the spread of novel pathogens, and environmental pressures are challenging our ability to treat and prevent illness.
We are working with innovators across the sector on the assessment of novel antimicrobials, vaccines and diagnostic tests, closing the gap between early discovery and real-world impact.
We collaborate with industry, academia, patients and public health partners to support the development of novel antimicrobials, vaccines, diagnostics and to help innovators navigate the complexities of modern infectious disease R&D.
We support translational research across infectious diseases, from early-stage hit finding, concept development to preclinical validation and into early clinical development. Our team combines in-house expertise with access to a national network of laboratories and partners, helping you to:
Bacterial, viral or fungal, we work across a wide range of pathogens and diverse modalities and delivery routes. Whatever the challenge, we are here to co-develop solutions that move your project forward.
Consultancy services
Our team of infectious diseases scientists provide strategic input and hands-on support. We work with you to define your goals, develop translational roadmaps, connect to our platforms, and guide you to the most relevant collaborators across the sector.
Complex Medicines
RNA-based therapeutics and targeted drug delivery require unique support. Our Complex Medicines platform provides assay development, guidance and regulatory insight to support next-generation anti-infectives.
Biomarkers
We use multi-omic approaches to uncover mechanisms of action, stratify patient populations, and develop robust pharmacodynamic biomarkers for clinical translation.
Target Engagement and Biodistribution
Access our proprietary technologies to confirm Target Engagement and visualise drug biodistribution using preclinical and clinical imaging tools.
Mechanistic Understanding and the Host Response
We have a suite of immunology in vitro, ex vivo assays and extensive range of organoid models to support your drug discovery project.
We believe progress against infectious diseases comes through collaboration, advocacy and action.
Alongside our partners, we are helping to reduce ecosystem barriers by:
