Antimicrobial Resistance
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is the ability of microorganisms to withstand the effects of antimicrobial drugs, posing a significant threat to global health and economies. Current research focuses on leveraging data technologies, including artificial intelligence and machine learning, to improve AMR surveillance, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment strategies across healthcare settings and the broader "One Health" framework. This interdisciplinary approach aims to enhance our understanding of resistance mechanisms and develop more effective interventions, ultimately reducing morbidity and mortality associated with drug-resistant infections. The successful implementation of these data-driven strategies is crucial for mitigating the escalating impact of AMR worldwide.
