The programme comprises 7 sessions dedicated to AMR surveillance, transmission, antimicrobial stewardship, host adaptation of multidrug-resistant bacteria, diagnostics, phage therapy and microbiota modulation distributed over 3 days (2 half days and 1 full day). It also includes two roundtable discussions on hot topics. Topics included are
‘What is the meaning of One Health?’ and ‘Can alternatives replace conventional antibiotics?’, which will allow the audience to interact with the speakers on these relevant topics.
