We are developing a rapid diagnostic test for Sepsis - a condition that kills more than 11M people around the World every year. Out test will diagnose blood stream infections, and classify the causative pathogen, at the patient's bedside, within 15 minutes. This will enable immediate targeted antimicrobial treatment when sepsis is suspected. Having a definitive diagnosis will also enable responsible use of anti-microbials to help tackle the global problem of anti-microbial resistance.
