Joint Teaching Units

 
A Joint Teaching Unit includes one recorded lecture of 40 min  and a live session of questions and answers in which students can directly interact with the lecturer. Students of DAMR Universities might ask for the recognition of 1 Euopean Credit Transfer System (ECTS) upon reaching a positive score in a dedicated on-line questionnaire.
​
Joint Teaching Units are gathered in three sections. 
 
State of the Art
  • Antimicrobial Resistance: origins, mechanisms of resistance, transmission of resistance between bacteria

  • AMR, WGS and One Health

  • The perfect storm is knocking on my door

  • Antimicrobial susceptibility testing of bacteria from animals

  • Mechanisms of antibiotic resistance and their genetic supports in Gram-negative bacteria of clinical importance

  • Antibiotic resistance genes and related cassettes into natural environments

 

Antimicrobial agents in Veterinary Science
  • Prudent use of antimicrobials in veterinary medicine

  • Use of antibiotics in animal related practices

  • Nutritional strategies to reduce the antibiotic need in weaned pigs

  • Network-based approaches to Food Safety and Antimicrobial Resistance: a survey


Applications of new molecular technologies in antimicrobial resistance
  • Application of WGS to trace L. monocytogenes in a rabbit meat processing plant: the concept of persistence beyond resistance

  • Acinetobacter spp. sequencing for assessing the complete AMR profile using the Oxford Nanopore MinION device

  • Metagenomics and AMR using hybrid sequencing technologies

  • Tracing evolution of AMR using WGS

  • WGS and Phylogeny in prokaryotes and eukaryotes

  • Integrons and WGS

  • Molecular typing of Gram-negative MDR pathogens: different approaches for different aims
