This is a recording of a session from AMP Europe 2021 Virtual Meeting. Purchase a bundle of 8 sessions from the AMP Europe 2021 Virtual Conference for a significant discount by clicking this link.

Session Description:
The session will provide information about the use and implementation of next generation sequencing and metagenomics to address questions related to infection control, epidemiology and antimicrobial resistance, as well as the ability to detect unknown or new pathogens in clinical samples. Challenges relating to bioinformatics and the development of a workflow/pipeline, will be discussed.

Objectives:
After this session, participants will be able to:
  • Apply NGS/metagenomics to predict antimicrobial resistance patterns.
  • Introduce infection control measurements based on data derived through Next Generation Sequencing.
  • Formulate a clinical diagnosis based on NGS/metagenomics data in relation to clinical findings.

Chair: Dr. Hubert G. Niesters

Presentations:

  • Using NGS in Looking for Pathogens, Dr. Charles Chiu

  • Use of NGS in Infection Control and the Detection of Resistance Genes, Dr. John Rossen
