This project is funded by the UK National Institute for Health Research to set up a full-fledged Global Health Research Unit (GHRU) through a grant awarded to the cGPS (Centre for Genomic Pathogen Surveillance). The aim of this project is primarily to fund research around intelligent surveillance for important emerging bacterial pathogens and monitoring the spread of antimicrobial resistance in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) through whole-genome sequencing. The proposal would enable bacterial isolates to be collected from several regions around the Philippines; their genomes assembled and analysed following WGS; not only with the aim of tracking transmission and resistance patterns but eventually in designing models that will integrate into real-time, public health 'early-warning systems'. This data is part of a pre-publication release.
