Register for the EMBARK Final Results Webinar
On Tuesday, October 15th, 2024, at 10:30 AM CEST (GMT +1) SEARCHER is organising a special webinar session highlighting the key outcomes from the JPIAMR consortium EMBARK. You can now register here:
The agenda will explore the motivations for monitoring AMR in the environment, the implementation of culture- and molecular-based approaches, and the biases and correlations between these methodologies. Topics that will be covered include:
- Reasons for monitoring AMR in the environment, how to implement it, and what is needed to succeed.
- E. coli as an indicator for the surveillance of AMR in the environment
- Database and method biases affecting ARG analysis
- ResFinderFG – a database and online platform for antibiotic resistance determinants identified through functional metagenomics
- Suggested antibiotic resistance genes to be targeted for monitoring
- Correspondence between methods for AMR monitoring
There will also be plenty of time to ask questions to the team, and to give input on our work. Don’t miss the opportunity to join our panel of experts and engage in discussions on AMR surveillance!
