Ep 22. Olof Lindahl & business studies in AMR. Testing Ab combinations. Plasmid stability evolution.

This month we bring you the work and career of Dr. Olof Lindahl, one of the associate senior lecturers at UAC, working in the field of business studies applied to AMR. In the news section, we present to you a new innovative method to test how antibiotics combinations work, and cover a recent article looking into the evolution of plasmid stability in relation to antibiotic treatment.
