This year we are delighted to have Prof Frank Møller Aarestrup from the Danish Technical University giving our annual public Winter Lecture:
Beating the Silent Pandemic: Global Surveillance of Antimicrobial Resistance
The global spread of infectious pathogenic bacteria, including those resistant to antimicrobial agents, is one of the greatest human health problems.
Frank's research has primarily targeted the association between use of antimicrobial agents to farm animals and the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance including the human health consequences.
Frank is an excellent speaker and his presentation will be accessible to experts and the general public alike.
Public engagement with AMR
Before the lecture starts there will be opportunities to explore some of the research in AMR happening across the University through public engagement activities set up in the library, and we warmly encourage you to find out more about our work from 4.30 pm.
The lecture will be followed by a drinks reception to which everyone is very welcome.
We very much look forward to welcoming you to what will be a most engaging and enjoyable evening.
