May the 4th be with you! Welcome back to our studio, fellow listeners. We are thrilled to bring you an episode looking into some of the newest approaches within AMR research. First, we feature an interview with bioinformatician Dr. François Lebreton, whose primary work consists of using DNA sequence analysis to study outbreaks of resistant strains. In the news section, we talk about machine learning and present two recently published articles about its use in pathogen identification, susceptibility testing and drug discovery. We hope you enjoy it! Check relevant links and material at www.uac.uu.se/the-amr-studio/episode18/. Follow our updates on twitter on www.twitter.com/uac_uu with #theAMRstudio hashtag!
