The race of antibiotic drug development against drug resistance developed by pathogenic bacteria is a futile one. As the industry designs newer and newer antibiotics, robust and harmful strains unaffected by such medicines keep evolving. Perhaps the solution lies elsewhere. The environment a pathogen resides in a host is a complicated one. An entire ecosystem of microorganisms thrive in our GI tract. A holistic study using principles of computational deterministic modelling of the dynamics of such interactions may give better insight into the system and perhaps reveal alternative tools to...
