2012–2014 · Research period
The FP7 AIDA project had begun in December 2011 and continued its planned research during these years. Its stated objective, recorded by CORDIS, was to investigate five older off-patent antibiotics through clinical and supporting research. This is a period summary, not a claim about particular events in a given month.
2015 · A wider discussion of older antibiotics
A peer-reviewed article, “Reviving old antibiotics”, was published in 2015 and discussed the need to reassess older drugs using contemporary evidence. The paper refers to the AIDA research context. CORDIS also published an overview of the project’s work on older antibiotics.
