Very pleased that our @NIHRresearch funded Opt-AMR project has kicked off. I will be leading a substantial evolutionary biology #AMR part of this with our colleagues in Malawi, Zambia and Uganda. Will be looking for a postdoc in 2 years timeโฆ.
This WAAW20244 we're highlighting Opt-AMR, a new @NIHRresearch funded programme led by LSTM which aims to combat the challenge of #AMR resistance. Managed by @iiCONNW in collaboration with @Makerere University & @Cuamm in Uganda, @MLW_programme, & @cidrz

Great to see this positive #AMR story published - increasing susceptibility to chloramphenicol has accompanied an increase in ESBL resistance in Malawi raising the possibility of reintroducing chlor as a therapeutic. Read the thread below from @_FEGraf.
Thrilled to see our study โMolecular mechanisms of re-emerging chloramphenicol susceptibility in extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteralesโ published @NatureComms, @LSTMnews, @MLW_Programme, #AMR. ๐งต๐.

Really enjoyed participating in 2024 @RSTMH Annual meeting, has been a wonderful two days of talks and panel discussion and superbly organised again by the team.
Our closing panel for the day is chaired by Dr Sarah Rafferty and is exploring the key innovations and challenges from the Annual Meeting, and the role that RSTMH can play #rstmh2024 #globalhealth
