Reducing antibiotic use alone won't be enough! Our new research in Cell Genomics @CellPress shows that poverty, overcrowding, inadequate sanitation, and limited healthcare access emerged as strong predictors of future resistance trajectory to 2050 cell.com/cell-genomics/fullt… #AI👇

Genomic and socioeconomic drivers of antimicrobial resistance forecast to 2050

Antimicrobial resistance is an escalating global threat, yet its biological and social determinants remain poorly understood. Baker et al. used machine learning integrating global genomics, resista...

Tackling AMR requires structural interventions on inequality, sanitation, nutrition and health equity alongside stewardship. We advocate that surveillance and intervention must embed AI if we are to get ahead of this threat rather than react to it.👇

Diarrhoea is still one of the biggest killers of young children in the region. We will use AI to investigate the links between climate, diarrhoea & AMR, covering Shigella, V. cholerae, E. coli, rotavirus and norovirus. 👇

The goal: tackle AMR at the source by stopping over-prescription of antibiotics and putting a real diagnostic tool in the hands of frontline healthcare workers. with @MakIDI_Uganda, @JembiHealth, @CausalFoundry, Università di Perugia & Addis Ababa Health Bureau. Please RT #AMR

Diarrhoeal disease (DD) is the third leading cause of death in children aged 1–59 months, and most of those deaths are preventable and treatable. CARE-AFRICA is a project funded by the EU's Global Health EDCTP3, investing in AI to fight diarrhoeal diseases in children and AMR👇

An international research consortium led by Prof Tania Dottorini @DottoriniResLab @KingsCollegeLon is set to develop an AI tool to help tackle diarrhoeal diseases in children under 5 years old in sub-Saharan Africa, with €4.8m funding from @EDCTP3 ➡️ kcl.ac.uk/news/4.8m-project-…

Is it a bacterium or a virus? If it’s a bacterium, what antibiotics are known to be effective against it, and which ones should be avoided?"
