Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of our greatest global health challenges.
But gaps in the data mean it can be difficult to understand the true scale of the threat.
Our latest explainer video, featuring @DrKambugu and @PaulTurnerMicro, has all you need to know ⤵️ #WAAW2024

Quite a few people have asked whether they can attend the 567th inaugural lecture online. That's not typical here so we thank @CoMUIIbadan for making it possible. Note the time change - it is now 3PM on Thur 21 Nov, Trenchard Hall @UniIbadan or Youtube youtube.com/live/3rmvIBJfvo0

Hello AMR friends: the ACORN account is alive and well...we've regained access after many frustrating months!
ACORN2 surveillance data is being written up as we speak: expect GRAM-challenging manuscripts on AMR burden, mortality, and economic impact over the coming months 😀

Finally! 4 years after scientific fraud & politicised science derailed it, #COPCOV, the world’s largest COVID-19 chemoprevention study, published results today in @PLOSMedicine: Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) does have a moderate benefit in preventing #COVID-19

MRSA (methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus) rates are going up globally. Many low resource settings don’t have access to vancomycin or therapeutic drug monitoring BUT cotrimoxazole is widely available and cheap.

@PaulTurnerMicro and colleagues in Cambodia explored the pediatric nasopharyngeal microbiota with culture, MALDI-TOF MS, and targeted metagenomic sequencing. This was technically feasible and revealed complex lineage-level colonization dynamics. #mBio journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…
