I will give a keynote address to the annual ‘PHARMAQAdemy’ event, which will include aquaculturists (biologists and fish health managers ), and will be held in Inverness in September. 

After hearing the presentation made by Prof Nick Brown (President, British Society for Antimicrobial Chemotherapy) at the Science in Parliament meeting held on 11th June at the UK House of Commons, the conference organisers feel the upcoming event in Inverness would be an ideal opportunity to raise awareness of the impending crisis of no new antibiotics in the aquaculture sector.

Therefore, as an ‘Antibiotic Champion’, I’ll present on the topic of the Antibiotic Action campaign on behalf of the Director, Prof Laura Piddock. You can follow the campaign at @TheUrgentNeed and you can sign the campaign’s petition at http://antibiotic-action.com
