Small World Initiative

Formulated at Yale University in 2012, the Small World Initiative is an innovative program that encourages students to pursue careers in science while setting up a unique platform to address the antibiotic crisis. It centers around an introductory biology course in which students conduct original hands-on field and laboratory research on soil samples in the hunt for new antibiotic candidates.
