CRE RESPOND Forum 2024: Developments in reducing antimicrobial resistance through optimised dosing
Join CRE RESPOND for their 2024 Forum to hear the latest updates and developments in reducing antimicrobial resistance through optimised dosing.
Over the past two and a half years, our team, together with PhD students, has actively collaborated with centres and hospitals worldwide to continue our activity around optimised antimicrobial use. This forum will present some of our most recent exciting data and we hope that it will provide a springboard from which to plan for future innovations in clinical practice in infectious disease.
CRE RESPOND offers light lunch to those attending in person from 1pm. Zoom link will be provided to those attending the seminar online.
