Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) isn't going to be solved by new antibiotics alone—it also requires identifying resistant infections quickly enough to guide treatment and prevent transmission. In this episode of Behind the Breakthroughs, Anne Beaubrun, PhD, of Cepheid and Amish Acharya, PhD, of the Fleming Initiative, discuss how rapid molecular diagnostics, including the TRACE-CPE study, could bring precision medicine to infectious disease by enabling earlier detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE)—dangerous, last-resort antibiotic-resistant bacteria that are spreading rapidly in hospitals. They also explore the scientific, clinical, and policy challenges of making rapid diagnostics a routine part of healthcare worldwide.
