Antimicrobial resistance is one of the greatest public health challenges of the 21st century. At EySa, we evaluate the role of the environment in the epidemiology of antimicrobial resistances. Our two main lines of study are:
- Dissemination of antimicrobial resistances in terrestrial environments and their impact on wildlife and the food chain.
- Assessment of the environmental risk of veterinary antimicrobial medications.
These approaches are carried out through direct detection of DNA in the environmental resistome and the development of geospatial models of habitat vulnerability to antimicrobials.
