Project description
Antibiotic resistance, i.e. the ability of bacteria to resist antibiotic treatments, is a major global health problem. Faced with this challenge, the ABRomics project, co-led by the IFB and the Institut Pasteur, and supported by the PPR Antibiotic Resistance, is dedicated to the development of an online community platform to strengthen surveillance and research on antibiotic resistance, as part of a One Health approach.
ABRomics brings together a multidisciplinary consortium of 43 teams from leading French research organizations. These teams cover the diversity of antibiotic resistance research in clinical and fundamental fields, as well as a range of expertise in mathematical modeling, computer science, bioinformatics, databases, and computer architecture.
The objectives of the platform are as follows:
- Provide open access to a set of standard genomic and metagenomic analysis pipelines, as well as mathematical and bioinformatics tools;
- Establish a repository of structured, interoperable, standardized and well-annotated multi-omic microbiological data of human, animal and environmental origin (FAIR approach)
- Provide a shared platform to facilitate surveillance and research on antibiotic resistance.
