DESCRIPTION:Dr Aimee Murray\, University of Exeter Medical School\, joins
  us for a Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences seminar. Abstra
 ct below. \n\nAntimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the greatest thre
 ats facing modern medicine and the global economy. Until recent years\, 
 the environment had been an overlooked reservoir of resistant bacteria a
 nd complex mixtures of compounds which can select for AMR. There is need
  to develop a standardised approach to perform risk assessment of antibi
 otics and other selective compounds released via human and animal waste\
 , as evidence is building that they can increase evolution and dissemina
 tion of AMR. A novel\, high through put selectivity screening assay will
  be introduced and its various applications outlined.
