VALUE-Dx The value of diagnostics to combat antimicrobial resistance by optimising antibiotic use

Coordinator: UNIVERSITEIT ANTWERPEN (BE)

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is of great public health concern, causing numerous losses of lives worldwide and threatening to reverse many of the considerable strides modern medicine has made over the last century. There is a need to stratify antibiotic and alternative treatments in terms of the actual benefit for the patient, improving patient outcome and limit the impact on AMR.

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

EU contribution: €6.8M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 5.5 years from 2019-04-01 to 2024-09-30.
