Welcome to diagnostics for AMR
This site is a natural evolution of “The Role of Diagnostics in the AMR Response” massive open online course from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. The comments from the course showed a real desire among the participants to engage and learn from experts and others battling AMR around the world. We hope this community provides learners with more practical next steps beyond raising awareness. We encourage you to ask questions, discuss what is or isn’t working in your local area, compare notes with your peers, post new information and anything else you can think of as we strive to bring this global crisis under control.
The open, efficient flow of information and ideas are a crucial part of bringing AMR under control. Thank you for joining us. The future is in our hands.
