AbstractBackground. The drivers of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) likely vary substantially by different demographics. However, few complete, open, nationa

New: patterns of antibiotic use by age/sex + implications for stewardship and AMR! I’m particularly fond of the plots!

See next post for the headlines or the paper for the stories the antibiotics tell...

Co-authors: Tom Ashfield + @gmknght.bsky.social, part of Gwen's fellowhip on age/sex on AMR!

Until August 2027 we would be working on data analysis and modelling to try and untangle the dynamics of #AMR by age and sex exploring electronic health records 🧫📑👩‍💻. Get in touch if any questions!

Three potential PhD positions are now open for applications!
- MRCLID:
(1) integrated with my fship - AMR prevalence by age&sex
(2) long term collab. - AMR gene transfer
- Nagasaki: new collaboration comparing UK&Japan AMR rates
