The Global Health Continuing Professional Development (GHCPD) program and the International Diagnostics Centre at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (IDC/LSHTM) launched a free 3-week online course curriculum covering the microbiology laboratory in the fight against AMR.

Three modules:

• The role of the microbiology laboratory in the fight against AMR
• The AMR laboratory: antibiotic susceptibility and resistance testing for clinical care
• Role of the laboratory in the prevention and control of AMR in healthcare settings

This course has been supported by an unrestricted educational grant from bioMérieux.

This activity has been developed independently by Medscape.

The goals of this activity are that clinicians will be more knowledgable about and competent in the use of rapid diagnostic technologies for infectious diseases and be better able to practice antimicrobial stewardship.

This activity is supported by an educational grant from bioMérieux, Inc.
