  Join us for a webinar with Laura Hardefeldt BSc BVMS MPH PhD Diplomate ACVIM (Large Animal)  :

  Progress in Antimicrobial Stewardship Using Big Data in Australia

  Over 10 years, researchers in our team at the University of Melbourne have used a combination of veterinary informatics and big data to describe antimicrobial use, evaluate antimicrobial stewardship programs and develop evidence to guide veterinarians in their clinical decisions. In this webinar, Laura will highlight the successes, pitfalls and gains made in interdisciplinary collaborations, engagement with veterinarians and importantly in the appropriate use of antimicrobials in animals.
