Tackling urgent antimicrobial resistance threats in Australia—in action

抗微生物药物耐药性是全球关注的一个主要问题，新的治疗选择有限，目前的耐药性监测做法也有局限性。作为该奖学金的一部分，我将与行业合作伙伴合作，利用地理制图和新型DNA测序技术，以期加强对淋病和其他公共卫生威胁的耐药性监测，为新的治疗策略提供信息，并更好地了解淋病在人群中的传播。

Antimicrobial resistance is a major global concern, there are limited new treatment options and current resistance surveillance practices have limitations. As a part of this fellowship I will collaborate with industry partners, utilise geographical mapping and novel DNA sequencing technologies with a view to enhance resistance surveillance for gonorrhoea and other public health threats, inform new treatment strategies and better understand the spread of gonorrhoea in the population.
