Professor Katherine Payne was awarded a personal chair in health economics at The University of Manchester in August 2010. Katherine is also a registered pharmacist and was awarded […]

The overarching goal of JPIAMR research on Surveillance is to standardise, improve and extend surveillance systems on antibiotic use and on AMR in humans, animals, food, and the larger environment. In the network call that opens today, JPIAMR will support leading scientists and experts in the field of AMR surveillance to establish networks to enhance resource […]

Surveillance networks are essential to monitor the threat of AMR and guide public health policy. The JPIAMR call for networks aims to create networks to enhance resource alignment and efforts in the field of AMR surveillance. In partnership with ten member countries; Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, […]

JPIAMR recognises a need to reinforce alignment of AMR research. To promote this, the JPIAMR will establish a Virtual Research Institute in AMR – a global network connecting research performing organisations, including institutes, centres, and infrastructures. In partnership with ten member countries; Canada, Egypt, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, […]

JPIAMR Evolves as Global Collaborative Platform on Antimicrobial Resistance. On February 26, 2018, South Korea was accepted as full member of the Joint Programming Initiative on Antimicrobial Resistance (JPIAMR). Now, 27 countries are members of the global collaborative platform and engaged in the mission to harness antimicrobial resistance (AMR). “AMR is a serious social issue […]

Today we are reached by the final report from DRIVE-AB with the headline: “Revitalizing the Antibiotic Pipeline“. The context is that “The current pipeline for innovative antibiotics in various stages of R&D is insufficient, potentially delivering no more than one innovative antibiotic for a “critical” World Health Organization (WHO) priority pathogen within the next five years.”, the report say in […]
