Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is a pressing global issue that demands our immediate attention. It's a complex challenge that threatens the very foundation of modern medicine and our ability to combat infections. But here's where it gets controversial: AMR isn't just a medical problem; it's a 'One Health' crisis, impacting human, animal, and environmental health in interconnected ways.
This online training course, taking place on December 10, 2025, aims to delve into the heart of this crisis and explore potential solutions. It's an opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of AMR through the lens of 'One Health', a framework that recognizes the intricate relationships between these different sectors.
The course will provide an in-depth exploration of AMR, its regulatory landscape, and the innovative solutions being developed to tackle this global challenge. Participants will have the chance to learn from experts and engage in interactive discussions, Q&A sessions, and case studies, fostering a collaborative environment to develop imaginative solutions.
So, who should attend? This course is designed for professionals across various sectors, including pharmaceutical and biotech industries, veterinary medicine, environmental science, and those with a keen interest in AMR research and management. It's an opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and gain a holistic understanding of AMR's impact and potential solutions.
Key topics covered include an introduction to AMR and 'One Health', an overview of antibiotic resistance mechanisms, the current regulatory landscape, cross-sector challenges and strategic approaches, and a deep dive into emerging alternatives to antibiotics. Participants will also discuss creative solutions and explore case studies of successful community initiatives that can be scaled globally.
One of the course's speakers, Linda Oyama, a microbiologist and lecturer at Queen's University Belfast, will share her expertise and passion for tackling AMR. Her research focuses on understanding AMR in microbiomes from a 'One Health' perspective, and she leads initiatives to harness young talent and world-leading AMR experts to innovate in this field.
By attending this course, participants will not only gain a thorough understanding of AMR and its complexities but also contribute to the development of innovative solutions. It's an opportunity to be part of a global effort to combat this pressing challenge and make a difference in the world of healthcare and beyond.
