Webinar: AMR Exchange Hooves, Paws, or Feed – Examining AMR in Animals

CDC’s AMR Exchange presents the next webinar exploring the global threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and the urgent action needed to stop its spread. Join us Tuesday, December 14, 2021, at 9 a.m. EST to hear experts from CDC, the National Institute of Antimicrobial Resistance Research and Education, The Ohio State University, and the University of Colorado working to improve the use of antimicrobials in animals and better understand the impact AMR in animals has on human health.

AMR germs can infect not only humans, but domesticated pets and livestock, too. To better understand factors influencing AMR in animals, CDC is leading a discussion with experts who specialize in animal related issues on addressing AMR through antimicrobial stewardship, understanding veterinary prescribing practices, and leveraging biosecurity and infection prevention measures to ensure health of animals and people.

This event is the third installment of CDC’s AMR Exchange, a global webinar series launched in 2021 to engage a broad group of partners, practitioners, veterinarians, and policymakers on AMR topics across One Health.
