AMR (Antimicrobial Resistance)

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health crisis that threatens the effectiveness of modern medicine. Without effective antibiotics, many routine medical procedures, such as surgery, organ transplantation, and cancer chemotherapy, become much more risky. Through clinical trials, surveillance and observational studies we aim to improve our understanding of AMR and its control in Singapore.
