Is “co-existing” with microbes the key to addressing AMR?

Over the past century, the discovery of antimicrobials has changed how we live with microbes, shifting our relationship with them.  

The new Perspectives on Politics publication, “Fit for Purpose?” Assessing the Ecological Fit of the Social Institutions that Globally Govern Antimicrobial Resistance, looks at whether our current system of global governance is capable of sustainably managing the relationship between human societies and invisible microbial worlds. It encourages us to instead consider how human societies fit within the basic features of microbial ecosystems, similar to checking if a key fits a lock. 

Join us for a panel discussion featuring insights from the study, with the authors delving into the research, sharing their findings and responding to audience questions.
