This contributed volume provides an overview of cutting-edge and next generation research and technologies for combatting antimicrobial resistance. Antibiotic-resistant infections are projected to cause 10 million deaths annually by the year 2050, and a sustainable, unified approach by researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and the public is urgently needed to stem this trend. This book aims to provide a comprehensive summary of current and future-facing efforts being made to mitigate the threat of AMR, through a One-Health approach to policy design and research.
Emphasis is given to emerging technologies that are sustainable, scalable, and applicable to the global community, such as nanotechnology, phage therapy, big data analytics, bioactive naturals, efficient sampling and molecular mechanisms of AMR.
The hope is that this volume will inform students, researchers, policymakers, and the public, as well as inspire new research and novel strategies to combat antimicrobial resistance.
Presents cutting-edge research and next gen technology through the lens of sustainable methods to combat AMR
Designed to inform and promote new research and technologies against the growing threat of resistance
An ideal resource for students, researchers, and industry professionals
