Emory Antibiotic Resistance Center

Thrilled to be part of this effort! The Weiss Lab is HIRING at all levels. Come join us to study heteroresistance and how tiny subpopulations of resistant cells can have huge impacts on treatment outcomes. Please RT and DM or email if interested. reuters.com/world/us/biden….

Thank you @RepDrewFerguson for your leadership on #antimicrobialresistance and the #PASTEURAct. We are thrilled you could join us tonight in emphasizing the urgency for action to #SquashSuperbugs and #PassPASTEUR.

We agree @Dr_Lori_Burrows. Unfortunately we observed much more heteroresistance than resistance, and in strains with a diversity of metallo-beta-lactamases including NDM1 which is spread globally thelancet.com/journals/lanin…

Congratulations, @abbott_carter, @SarahSatola, @DWeissLab!

Delighted to meet today with ⁦@RepBuddyCarter⁩ and award him an ⁦@IDSAInfo⁩ impact award for his leadership on AMR over the years.

Congrats, @QuaveEthnobot!

Congrats, @GrabowiczLab

Congrats, @QuaveEthnobot!

6th Texas Medical Center Conference on Antimicrobial Resistance & Stewardship Houston, TX, January 18-20th, 2023.  Abstract deadline December 2nd, 2022 . In cooperation with @ARLGnetwork ; T32 programs in Houston, Emory and UPitt. @asm_tmc @ASMicrobiology amr23.blogs.rice.edu

USA Today published my Op-Ed on the 5 year anniversary of Mallory taking her last breath. Please read it and take action on AMR. #bacteriophage #amr #antimicrobialresistance #squashsuperbugs # lnkd.in/gC33VZa3

THE MOLD THAT CHANGED THE WORLD 🌎 🧫 Thrilled to be here for the opening night of the incredible play on the discovery of penicillin now brought to #ATL!!! The art on display, the opening panel of experts, and next…. the musical! @cdcfound & @EmoryUniversity

It’s true what they say, Atlanta is beautiful in the fall 🍂 🍁 and our chorus aren’t bad either… we’ve been rehearsing for a few days and it promises to be a great show! #fall #singing #musicaltheatrelife #dowhatmakesyouhappy #artmeetsscience #antimicrobialresistance #science

Our chorus member @briankhammer was saved by antibiotics when he was a child after developing a serious staphylococcal infection.... Read his story and why he thinks this show is so important. tinyurl.com/az4f4czw #AntimicrobialResistance #musicaltheatre #sciencemeetsart

The Emory University M&I Department is accepting applications for a tenure eligible position at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor within the broad fields of antimicrobial resistance and bacterial pathogenesis. #EmoryMicroBio

Fact: Sepsis is a leading cause of death in hospitals, killing nearly 270,000 adults in the U.S. each year. Without new types of #antibiotics that can overcome resistance, that number will only increase. #SepsisAwarenessMonth pew.org/3cRaP7c

On this month's episode of #SuperbugsUnplugged, Dr. Everly Macario shares the harrowing story of losing her young son to an #antibiotic resistant infection. Tune in to hear why reducing antibiotic use is key to saving lives.

I’m so proud of the incredible team effort that went into this manuscript. Congrats to all involved @jake_choby, @tugba6ozturk, @abbott_carter, @SarahSatola. We hope antibiotic developers will consider #heteroresistance which may save time, $$, and greatly improve efficiency.

Congrats to our own @jake_choby, @tugba6ozturk, @abbott_carter, @SarahSatola, @DWeissLab on this important study on the way antibiotic #heteroresistance threatens the beta-lactam pipeline.

“1.27M people are dying of #AMR bacteria per year, as small research teams are breaking up. The intellectual capacity around the world is being diminished. We must replenish the next generation who can develop antibiotics.” - @koutterson @TheHillEvents bit.ly/3LF107v
