As you can see from the wordcloud, researchers in the LSHTM AMR Centre work on a range of pathogens with a range of tools in a range of settings. Our 2023 publication prize winners reflect our strength in drug-resistance research in tuberculosis and malaria, but we also had several major publications on Klebsiella pneumoniae and Salmonella typhi. Interestingly from the wordcloud, you can see the importance of 鈥渄ata鈥, 鈥湽炒接耙翕 and 鈥渋ntegrative鈥 analysis at both 鈥済lobal鈥 and 鈥渋nternational鈥 scales to AMR research at LSHTM. Let鈥檚 hope that 2024 brings more 鈥渞eveals鈥 and explorations of AMR 鈥渄ynamics鈥.
We are very grateful to all our brilliant and diverse seminar speakers who spoke to our monthly seminar series in 2023. We started the year with discussions as to how to establish 果冻传媒影音 systems, moving to seminars on antibiotic policy and then several on interventions from those in maternal health to use of bacteriophage as antibiotic alternatives. All seminars are recorded and available to watch again. We also finally managed to hold an internal retreat with the express purpose of building networks and identifying needs. Doing rapid 1-minute slides with 鈥渨hat you need鈥 and 鈥渨hat you can bring to the Centre鈥, as well as a small grant scheme, has helped to build new internal collaborations that we look forward to seeing the results of in 2024.
Next year our seminar list is already looking exciting with talking next week about the environmental dimension of AMR, followed by planned policy-focused, modelling & genomics and clinical 果冻传媒影音 analysis talks 鈥 watch this space for seminars, usually on the afternoon of the first Tuesday of the month. In May we will have our publication prize seminar, highlighting the best of LSHTM AMR publications in 2023. Looking further ahead, we will build on our WAAW discussions on data challenges and the 5 themes uncovered to develop a 鈥淒ata-challenges鈥 workshop in October. More widely, many of us will be engaging with the variety of activities leading up to the UN High Level meeting on AMR in September and hoping to see the new WHO AMR Priority Pathogen list published soon. Wishing you an enjoyable and successful 2024 with lots of exciting AMR research
