Snakebite is a public health emergency affecting up to 5.4 million people a year, causing up to 125,000 deaths. This multidisciplinary project will develop a new generation of medicines for treating snakebites, using innovative design approaches supported by cutting edge science and novel production ideas. Directly focused on improving antivenom effectiveness in the treatment of snakebites in Australia, Africa and Papua New Guinea, the results will make Australia a world leader in this field.

蛇咬伤是一种突发公共卫生事件，每年影响多达540万人，造成多达12.5万人死亡。这个多学科项目将开发新一代治疗蛇咬伤的药物，使用由尖端科学和新颖的生产理念支持的创新设计方法。直接专注于提高抗蛇毒血清在澳大利亚、非洲和巴布亚新几内亚治疗蛇咬的有效性，结果将使澳大利亚成为该领域的世界领导者。
