Grant Activity:
Understanding plasmid-mediated AMR dissemination in Australia
Purpose:
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an ongoing threat to public health that requires continued attention. Plasmids are small molecular vehicles that can carry AMR genes and spread them between bacteria, thus contributing to rising drug resistance. In this project, we aim to better understand which plasmids confer AMR genes and where we find these plasmids (in hospitals and the environment). With this knowledge, we can better detect and combat plasmid-mediated resistance in Australia.
