The Antimicrobial Resistance in Agrifood Systems Transdisciplinary (AMAST) Network has hit the ground running with the publication of its first paper, less than a month after the project’s launch!
The article, “Understanding the interests of academics from diverse disciplines to identify the prospective focus for a UK-based transdisciplinary network involving farm-to-fork stakeholders on antimicrobial resistance in agrifood systems: An online survey” has been written by Marie McIntyre and colleagues and published in the journal One Health.
The paper outlines the results of a survey conducted to determine the focus, structure, and priorities of our new network and highlights the complex, interdisciplinary nature of tackling antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in agrifood systems. It emphasizes the need for collaboration not just between academic disciplines, but also with non-academic partners throughout the food supply chain.
