Artificial Intelligence‐Guided Phenotypic Drug Repurposing Against Streptococcus pneumoniae

ABSTRACT The prevalence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) within the common bacterial pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae makes it a priority for the development of new antibiotics. While artificial intelligence (AI) has recently boosted phenotype‐based repurposing of drugs for oth...

A reusable model of pangenome selection informs optimal surveillance strategies over vaccine introductions

Abstract Background The human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major cause of disease, including pneumonia and meningitis. The introduction of Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccines (PCVs) initially reduced the burden of disease through a reduction of colonisation by vaccine-targe...
