“Ready for a World Without Antibiotics? The Global Threat of Antibiotic Resistance and How to Address It.”

Followed by a discussion with

Jeremy Farrar
Director of the Wellcome Trust

Antibiotics are the original wonder drugs. This remarkable class of drugs is responsible for saving the lives of millions of people, but unlike other drug classes, for antibiotics, we have to keep innovating just to avoid falling behind. Other drugs are just as effective today as the day they were created, but antibiotic decline in effectiveness over time through resistance. We will look at the unique problems facing global health due to resistance and how countries and individuals can come together to help tackle this problem together.
