Saving our antibiotics: Understanding resistance and how data can prevent it

NIHR Birmingham Biomedical Research Centre are hosting a webinar about antibiotic resistance for patients and the public. 

Discover what antibiotic resistance means for you, and how data is helping prevent it and guide doctors to choose the right antibiotic.

Antibiotics have been one of medicine's greatest lifesavers - but now, some infections are fighting back. This growing problem, called antibiotic resistance, threatens treatments we all depend on. When bacteria become resistant, these medicines stop working. Without effective antibiotics, routine infections could become dangerous again, and medical procedures such as surgeries, organ transplants, and cancer treatments would carry far greater risks.
