Antimicrobial resistance is globally recognized as one of the greatest healthcare threats. Our research program is focused on the prevention, treatment, virulence inhibition and clinical outcomes associated with drug resistant bacteria. The program is divided into three divisions: the antimicrobial pharmacology division, the outcomes and pharmacoepidemiology division, and the implementation science outreach division.
