Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common bacteria that infects humans. This project aims to characterise the mechanisms that Staph uses to develop resistance to one of our last-line antibiotics, and will determine the effects of this resistance on the ability of the bacteria to cause human disease. The work will also investigate new treatment strategies to tackle this challenging bacteria.

金黄色葡萄球菌是感染人类最常见的细菌之一。该项目旨在描述葡萄球菌对我们的最后一种抗生素产生耐药性的机制，并将确定这种耐药性对细菌导致人类疾病能力的影响。这项工作还将研究新的治疗策略，以应对这种具有挑战性的细菌。
