Great to be at the @LSHTM_AMR #AMRDataSymposium today. Critical issue is the alarming lack of AMR data from the most vulnerable— admitted small and sick newborns in high-burden settings. Closing this gap is essential to tackling #AMR, #outbreaks & improving #neonatal mortality
🗣️ Kicking off the #AMRDataSymposium with opening remarks from our Co-Directors, @gmknght & @DrKatHolt , as they set the stage for a day of discussions on the power of data in combating #AMR.

Stay tuned for valuable insights!
