Worldwide antibiotic use is increasing, which is a major driver of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The WHO predicts that in just 30 years antimicrobial resistance will become the third leading cause of death globally. Pig production is a major, global consumer of antibiotics, however, with DKK 150 million (€20.1 million) of funding from the Novo Nordisk Foundation, scientists in Denmark, the United States and the Netherlands aim to reduce the need for antibiotic use through the PIG-PARADIGM research project.
