2. AMR transmission in the real world.
• Dairy Farming uses a lot of cephalosporins.
• Is there a link with AMR and can it be reversed?
• Do dogs and people pick up E. coli from the environment?
• Is there a link to UTIs caused by Cephalosporin Resistant
E. coli in humans?
• And can this be reversed?

•Comparative proteomics to identify putative mechanisms of
resistance. E.g. coming out of pK/pD models.
•Knockouts/over-expression studies to confirm involvement
in AMR and relative importance.
•Surveys of clinical isolates to identify if novel AMR
mechanism is present; how different mechanisms work
together.
•Impact includes development of strain collections.
