The focus of my research program for the next 5 years will be antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which is recognized by the WHO as one of the most pressing health issues globally and a threat to the very core of modern medicine. AMR is a consequence of adaptive evolution of microbial genomes in response to antimicrobial drugs; as such, genomics has a crucial role to play in understanding, monitoring and managing this most challenging of global health problems.

我未来 5 年研究计划的重点将是抗菌素耐药性 (AMR)，世界卫生组织将其视为全球最紧迫的健康问题之一，并对现代医学的核心构成威胁。 AMR 是微生物基因组响应抗菌药物而适应性进化的结果；因此，基因组学在理解、监测和管理这一最具挑战性的全球健康问题方面发挥着至关重要的作用。
