Welcome to the first installment of the bioMérieux ID/AST newsletter!
We don’t need to tell you: Antimicrobial resistance is a rising and critical health concern. The fight against resistance requires small steps and big action from international strategy development to the patient bedside.
The role of the microbiology lab – rapid, reliable identification of pathogens and antimicrobial susceptibility testing – is an important piece. And we at bioMérieux consider it our job to
help you.
