The Bridging the Gaps Challenge Day gives you the opportunity to work with representatives from the Severn Trent Water. This is a unique opportunity to understand some of the challenges faced by this company and what questions they have that may benefit from utilising knowledge in antimicrobial resistance, whether currently applied to the clinical or environmental fields.
Severn Trent will share what they do as a company, learn from us as a research community, and build on any knowledge that may be translated to several issues/queries of interest. Severn Trent participants will include:
Potential challenges and unknowns may include:
Attendees will work with each other and Severn Trent participants to investigate opportunities to apply current knowledge to antimicrobial resistance in the real world water environment and also learn and apply to other challenges that the company faces and attendees identify. There is the opportunity to translate knowledge from the water field into other areas where AMR is a concern.
If you develop novel research ideas at this event you will be able to apply for pump prime funds from the Bridging the Gaps Awards fund during spring 2016.
Please book early. There are spaces for just 30 attendees and booking closes on Wednesday 6 January.
