“Genomic Surveillance of Antimicrobial Resistance”
“Bridging genomics, microbiology and big data to tackle global Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR)
We are targeting the most relevant pathogen-antibiotic combinations at each collaborating surveillance Unit; analysing pathogen sequence data, basic anonymised patient information, and information about how samples were collected. Understanding the changing profile of antimicrobial resistance enables public health programmes to respond accordingly, locally, regionally and ultimately nationally.”
