What can genomics tell us about AMR?
Dr Estee Torok is conducting pioneering research into using whole-genome sequencing in real-time so that AMR can be tracked and the results used to inform treatment. Watch the interview to learn how she does it, and her predictions on how these tools will be used in the future.
Estee explains that microbial genomics techniques could improve routine healthcare in the NHS in England. She also highlights three challenges – what are these? In the comments area, share what you think these three challenges are.
