As #WorldAMRAwarenessWeek wraps up, we share how respiratory metagenomics is transforming care. Faster and accurate detection of pathogens help clinicians target treatment sooner and reduce unnecessary antibiotics, whilst improving personalised care and antimicrobial stewardship across the NHS.

What an inspiring day! Last week we hosted our second Network Day, bringing together over 120 people. We explored the development of the national pilot metagenomic service, which is improving detection & treatment of respiratory infections. Thank you to all who joined and to our fantastic speakers!
