Initiating a Sustainable Crowdsourced System for Rapid, Affordable and Point-of-Care Diagnosis for Antimicrobial Resistance in Australia

我是一名传染病科学家，致力于使临床测试负担得起和可获得。全球迫切需要加快传染病的诊断，特别是那些由抗生素耐药性微生物引起的传染病。我的项目将设计内部负担得起的测试，以满足不同环境中的医疗需求。通过广泛传播这些测试，我还将启动一个可持续的众包系统，以监测耐药微生物在澳大利亚的传播。

I am an infectious diseases scientist that thrives to make clinical tests affordable and accessible. There is an urgent global need to expedite diagnoses of infectious diseases, particularly those caused by antibiotic resistant microbes. My project will design in-house affordable tests that are tailored to address the medical needs in different settings. By wide spreading these tests I will also initiate a sustainable crowdsourced system to monitor the spread of resistant microbes in Australia.
