Abstract
The Fleming Initiative and Australia's national science agency, CSIRO, have co-designed a new award programme to recognise the achievements of up to 20 women around the world who are leading and inspiring action on antimicrobial resistance (AMR). [cite: 6908] AMR occurs when disease-causing microbes can resist the effects of medicines, such as antibiotics, designed to kill them. [cite: 6909] This growing global problem is accelerated by the inappropriate use (overuse, underuse, and misuse) of antimicrobials in humans and animals. [cite: 6910]
