AMR has been identified as one of the most pressing global challenges we face this century. Through projects such as IID3, we are able to learn more about AMR in foodborne pathogens with the aim of supporting work to prevent the spread.

It's World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week (WAAW) and we want to share some insights into our latest Citizen Science projects. Citizen Science is when we co-create studies with people in the community. Our latest reports delve into the world of AMR in your home, specifically on home-grown food and on your chopping boards.
