Define antibiotics, antibiotic resistance, and trace the pathways of resistance genes through the environment and into our bodies
• Explain the public health implications of antibiotic resistance in the environment
• Describe the role of sequencing, specifically Nanopore, in environmental surveillance for antibiotic resistance
• Give ‘real-world’ examples of AMR work and improve self-efficacy of taking part in bioinformatics research
• Demonstrate your knowledge of antibiotics, resistance mechanisms, acquisition of resistance and bacterial mechanisms of gene transfer, bacterial diversity and public health from Chapters 8,11,19 & 20.
