SUBMISSON DEADLINE: 20 April 2016
Title: “Methods for detecting and quantifying antibiotic resistant bacteria and antibiotic resistance genes in the environment”
The participants will be introduced to the “tools of the trade” and discuss how these methods are applied in assessing the abundance and distribution of ARB&ARG in wastewater treatment facilities and downstream environments. During the course, the participants will get familiar with computer-based tools (bioinformatics), which are used to gather, analyze and integrate biological and genetic information for understanding antibiotic resistance.
