Tackling urgent antimicrobial resistance threats in Australia—in action [ 2018 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Elina Trembizki (Principal investigator)

Brief description Antimicrobial resistance is a major global concern, there are limited new treatment options and current resistance surveillance practices have limitations. As a part of this fellowship I will collaborate with industry partners, utilise geographical mapping and novel DNA sequencing technologies with a view to enhance resistance surveillance for gonorrhoea and other public health threats, inform new treatment strategies and better understand the spread of gonorrhoea in the population.
