How to participate

Help us hunt for the next antibiotic.

By donating today, you’ll be helping Dr Roberts and his team work with communities to distribute, collect, and analyse “swabs” that are vital to finding new treatments. These swabs, taken by the public, might contain microbes that live in the back of a fridge, gather on a phone, or linger on a light switch.

If you choose to give £30 or more, we’ll send you a set of swabs so you can help the search by conducting swabs and sending them back to be analysed… Who knows, the answer to a new antibiotic could literally be on your doorstep.  

Help us spread the word. Please like and share the Facebook page and talk about antimicrobial resistance and antibiotics to your family and friends. We all have the opportunity to make a difference with this project.

If you want to take part please contact Dr Adam Roberts and or simply pledge online or send a cheque for the required amount of swabs (payable to Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine) together with your address to Adam and help us search for the world's next antibiotic!
