Our efforts to develop new technologies for the identification of antibiotic-resistant bacteria were recognized with the 2016 SLAS Innovation Award. This prize recognizes “exceedingly” innovative” work that “contributes to the exploration of technologies in the laboratory, exceeds a benchmark or milestone in screening or the lead discovery process, or demonstrates an advanced and integrated use of mature technologies.” See this article for more about the research that won the prize: http://www.slas.org/eln/new-tools-to-rapidly-diagnose-infections-and-detect-antibiotic-resistant-bacteria/
