India-UK research on AMRflows: antimicrobials and resistance from manufacturing flows to people: joined up experiments, mathematical modelling and risk analysis
Our experts are joining Indian counterparts to investigate the impact that releasing antibiotics from antibiotic manufacturing into India’s waterways has on the spread of potentially fatal drug-resistant infections @UOB_India@LES_UniBham@envamrflows
Happy to share that 13 projects involving 64 partners from 15 different countries have been recommended for funding within the JPIAMR 17th transnational call! Total requested funding amount is 17,2 M€.

Chuffed to have played a role in this. which is the first report to engage with academia and industry in the search for solutions to the sewage spill crisis.
Reducing sewage in rivers and seas is public health priority, says Chris Whitty https://t.co/gw0gpJtPFT
We’re busy finalising the programme for this #AMR modelling for policy event. Still open to volunteers to speak & please register online if you wish to attend this event in person!
Interested in modelling? interested in #AMR? Then join #RESIST3 for a day of discussion with a focus on UK policy.
We have an eventbrite - register to join in person or join us online! webinar link up soon.

Come and join us @IMIBirmingham@unibirmingham !
With co-organisers @glover_lshtm @dannagifford and James Price (Brighton) we're looking forward to a day of talking mathematical modelling and data analysis with a view to support the future of AMR policy.
We're looking for a varied programme of speakers so please do volunteer!
Case study highlights the potential—and challenges—of phage therapy
Bacteriophage therapy helped suppress a recurring bloodstream infection that wasn't responding to antibiotics, but an immune response was too much to overcome.

Our latest preprint shares a birthday with its first author @BelenGPascual ! A (we think useful) way of comparing transition graphs for Markov models and HMMs, applied to accumulation models for anti-microbial resistance evolution. https://t.co/4fg2vZ1lMX 1/
@tinaljoshi and I chaired the last two #KnockingoutAMR workshops with the @MicrobioSoc team today - what a high to finish on and what a fantastic journey! Thank you to all the wonderful people who participated and thanks to the society for all your hard work and lovely flowers 🙏
We're extremely pleased to be awarded funding from Research England to establish Bath Centre of Excellence in Water-Based Early-Warning Systems for Health Protection (WBE@Bath). Thank you to all involved.
