Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Biopharmaceutical Accelerator (CARB-X) is awarding Prompt Diagnostics $1 million to further the development of a portable PCR platform to detect multiple pathogenic bacteria targets and their antibiotic susceptibility which will help to guide treatment at the point-of-care.
