What We Do
HEAT-AMR
The Human-Environment-Animal Transdisciplinary Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Research Group conducts research on the One Health epidemiology of AMR at the intersection of human, environmental and animal health.
The core focus of HEAT-AMR is to develop an evidence base to inform policies, interventions and actions that utilize a One Health approach to tackle AMR.
