Abstract/Summary:
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) refers to the ability of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites to resist the effects of antimicrobial drugs, rendering them ineffective in treating infections. This resistance can occur naturally over time as microorganisms adapt and evolve but is accelerated by inappropriate use of antimicrobial drugs in humans, animals, and agriculture. The Canadian Antimicrobial Resistance Network (CAN-AMR-Net) is proposed as a pan-Canadian, pan-One Health (OH) group of academic human health, veterinary, food safety and production, and environmental health researchers with expertise and experience across OH and professional sectors who will collaborate with public and private stakeholders to create a OH AMR research training platform. Our team includes leading experts in biosciences, epidemiology, social science (policy, law, economics), engineering, business, human and veterinary medicine, genomics, data science, systems analysis, and ecosystem health - each one excellent in their area of expertise but also with OH experience. Our vision is to train the next generation of researchers, practitioners, and leaders in the application of transdisciplinary communication and methodologies across OH sectors that effectively tackles the wicked problem of AMR. We will offer research trainees and early career researchers translational OH AMR research skills in a transdisciplinary, cross-training environment via four Themes: 1) a OH, Professional, and Disciplinary Sector Workshop to identify core OH AMR translational competencies; 2) Transdisciplinary Training and Career Readiness will provide a foundational, disciplinary OH approach to ensure trainees acquire the necessary vocabulary to communicate together; 3) Excellence in knowledge translation and communication; and 4) Indigenous knowledge and engagement will include Indigenous ways of knowing and doing, frameworks for co-creation/co-development of research and training, and community-led research.
