The inside front cover from the Biotechnology Journal last issue is from our recent paper. It was made by Catarina Oliveira and based on the article from Gaetano Maugeri, Iana Lychko, Rita Sobral, and Ana C. A. Roque about emerging technologies for the identification and profiling of antimicrobial resistance bacterial agents. 

"Antimicrobial resistance represents a threat to humankind and healthy living. Emerging and future technologies for the identification and profiling of antimicrobial resistance bacterial agents are massively gaining ground over the current approaches used in clinical microbiology. These technological advances will contribute to save lives and decrease the healthcare costs associated with microbial infections."
