Antimicrobial resistance
The rise of antimicrobial resistant pathogens is one of the major health challenges facing the human population.
We will examine the capacity of mobile genetic elements to promote the spread of antimicrobial resistance.
Tracking the spread of microbial resistance, and surveillance for the emergence of new resistance genes, will inform strategies for the control of multi-resistant pathogens in the health system.
A pledge to AID goes directly into the research of issues that impact the lives of many people and their families.
