We launch our podcast series on antimicrobial resistance research, “The AMR Studio”, during the World Antibiotic Awareness Week 2018. In this episode we feature a short introduction on what antibiotics and antibiotic/antimicrobial resistance are, an in-depth interview with the management team of the Uppsala Antibiotic Center and we talk a bit about what the World Antibiotic Awareness Week is.
