Описание: Reducing our use of antibiotics will help tackle the global threat that is antimicrobial resistance (AMR).

DOSA - Diagnostics for One Health and User-Driven Solutions for Antimicrobial Resistance - is taking a bold step forward in the fight against AMR by developing affordable, rapid diagnostics for healthcare, agriculture, and environmental settings.

Learn how a multi-disciplinary team of researchers, microbiologists, and service design specialists took a One Health approach to AMR.

Discover how scientific collaboration between the UK and India has led to the development of an easy-to-use, low-cost, sustainable and effective diagnostic test for Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs).

And hear how the test is already being used in a real-world setting, helping primary care workers and patients in Assam identify UTI symptoms and make early interventions that reduce the need to prescribe antibiotics.
