Great workshop today on our research into #antibioticresistance communication, co-presented with @sam-mkumbuzi.bsky.social (University of Cape Town). Big thanks to everyone for the insightful comments and suggestions - great to keep conversations going over lunch! #AMR #RiskCommunication

Fantastic to see @debbamber.bsky.social present ethnographic data on behavioural and social factors impacting blood culture sampling at the annual ABC Workshop. Great work as part of our NIHR-funded iSAMPLE project!

Excellent talk by @miroslavsirota.bsky.social arguing that 'wicked learning environments' create misguided intuitions and expectations about antibiotics.

📣 Risk communication about antimicrobial resistance: A content analysis of metaphor use in global public discourse

I've had a fantastic and hugely productive research visit to South Africa. One highlight was a creative session on visualising #AMR metaphors facilitated by the wonderful Natalie Schellack. Thank you for having me - it was so much fun!

Just back from Winter Wonderland on campus! Yes, it's aimed at students, but I brought my little son along. Highlight? The inflatable snowglobe. Lowlight? He was terrified of the fake snow inside it. Parenting win? Maybe not.😂❄️ #WinterAdventures #ParentingLife

Antibiotic resistance and #climatechange pose existential threats of similar magnitude. Why are global attention and political commitment so different? What policies are needed to curb antibiotic resistance? In our 2021 paper, Niklas Harring and I offer a discussion:
