Novel AMR Transmission Pathways: Zoonotic Vectors and Airborne Resistomes

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is no longer confined to hospitals — resistant bacteria and genes circulate across humans, animals, and the environment. Could companion animals and even urban air microbiomes represent overlooked drivers of AMR transmission? In this expert-led webinar, hosted with the PREPARE-TID Consortium, we explore emerging evidence, molecular epidemiology, and novel surveillance approaches to strengthen One Health strategies against the global AMR threat. Featured Talks 🐕 Companion animals as reservoirs of ESBL-producing E. coli Prof. Olga Makarova, University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna – Molecular epidemiology of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) resistance – High-risk E. coli lineages (ST38, ST131, ST141) linked to human infections – Zoonotic transmission potential and multidrug resistance dynamics 🌀 Airborne resistomes and AMR gene surveillance in urban environments Dr. Sofya Pozdniakova, Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) – Detection of resistance genes in routine air pollution monitoring networks – Air as a reservoir of clinically relevant bacteria and fungal pathogens – Metagenomic tools for large-scale environmental AMR surveillance What you’ll learn 🧬 Evidence-based insights into hidden AMR pathways beyond clinical settings 🌍 One Health approaches integrating human, veterinary, and environmental data 🔬 Applications of molecular diagnostics, sequencing, and metagenomics for AMR detection 📈 Implications for surveillance, public health interventions, and policy Connect with us: 🌍 Website: prepare-tid.eu 🌍 Website: www.xpedite-dx.com 🔗 LinkedIn: Xpedite Diagnostics 🐦 Twitter/X: @XpediteDx 💬 Have questions for the speakers or want to collaborate on AMR surveillance research?
