This project addresses the urgent need for improved evidence-based guidance for antibiotic use in newborns, with focus on ecological and molecular properties of antimicrobial resistance, with implications for guidelines and surveillance. We wish in particular to investigate the difference between antibiotic resistance in India and Norway. The project is part of the Born in the twilight programme, funded by the INDNOR programme from the Norwegian Research Council and the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR).

This project addresses the urgent need for new strategies to combat antimicrobial resistance. While antibiotics have saved millions of lives, the worldwide rise in antibiotic resistance give rise to thousands suffering and dying during the first days of life due to resistance of antibiotics. In addition to resistance during early life, antibiotic promote microbiome disruptions that can have life-long consequences, including among other conditions, increased risk of respiratory infections.
