To make sense of this stochasticity, we introduced the Collateral Response Score, a probabilistic framework for forecasting how prior treatment history shapes future drug options.

The answer: evolution doesn’t just increase vancomycin resistance — it reshapes the bacterium’s response to the very drugs we’d normally switch to next. Some lineages become collaterally sensitive, while others become collaterally resistant, depending on the evolutionary path they take.
