This international event brought together researchers dedicated to the critical challenge of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Throughout the week, attendees engaged in a series of informative presentations exploring data-driven approaches to optimising antibiotic use. Hear first-hand from <a href=\"https:\/\/profiles.imperial.ac.uk\/jiayue.zhu09\">Dr Nina Zhu<\/a> from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imperial.ac.uk\/infectious-disease\/\">Department of Infectious Disease<\/a> on what her experience at the event was like.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I recently returned from Kampala, Uganda, where I spent an incredible week at Makerere University for the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imperial.ac.uk\/antimicrobial-optimisation-centre\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Centres for Antimicrobial Optimisation Network (CAMO-Net)<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> event. Colleagues from around the world came together in Kampala to share knowledge, take part in workshops, and learn more about the work our Uganda National Hub does to address antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Africa and beyond.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Data and Dashboards for Optimising Antibiotic Use<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The event\u2019s theme was \u2018Data and Dashboards\u2019. Harnessing the power of data through strategic and targeted studies to generate new knowledge related to optimising antimicrobial use is a key theme of CAMO-Net. As my work focuses on using data linkage and system dynamics modelling to understand healthcare-associated infections and AMR, it was a perfect week for me!\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I was joined in Kampala by CAMO-Net members from four other countries: Brazil, India, Malawi, and South Africa. We received such a warm welcome from our Ugandan hosts and started the week with a networking session at a local restaurant. At the reception, Dr Andrew Kambugu, CAMO-Net Uganda lead and head of Makerere\u2019s Infectious Diseases Institute (IDI) gave a fascinating showcase of IDI\u2019s history. It was a perfect blend of networking and getting to know more about the impressive strides IDI has made in infectious diseases, data, and AMR.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4773\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4773\" style=\"width: 1170px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1170\" height=\"760\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4773\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.imperial.ac.uk\/imperial-medicine\/files\/2024\/07\/Screenshot-2024-07-15-at-12.49.32-e1721044232488.png\" alt=\"\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4773\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Professor Umar Kakumba, the 1st Deputy Vice Chancellor of Makerere University, and Dr Andrew Kambugu, CAMO-Net Uganda lead, welcomed the whole CAMO-Net team<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The next morning, the official programme kicked off at Makerere\u2019s School of Public Health Auditorium. We were greeted with welcome remarks from notable figures, including Dr Kambugu and CAMO-Net\u2019s overall lead Professor Alison Holmes. Dr Chibuzor Uchea from the Wellcome Trust and Professor Umar Kakumba, the 1st Deputy Vice Chancellor of Makerere University, also shared their insights.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The highlight of the morning was a panel discussion on optimising antibiotic use in Africa. It was enlightening to hear from experts like Dr Charles Ayume. Dr Ayume is a medical doctor and a member of the Ugandan Parliament, representing the Koboko Municipality with the National Resistance Movement (NRM). This dual role is a vital link between healthcare and politics in the country and his presence at our event was testament to the work CAMO-Net is doing to influence healthcare policy in the regions in which we operate. Joining the panel was Professor Damalie Nakanjako, professor of Medicine and current Principal for Makerere University\u2019s College of Health Sciences. In a wide-ranging discussion, what fascinated me most was a discussion around the importance of data in combating AMR \u2013 something very close to my heart. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4774\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4774\" style=\"width: 1164px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1164\" height=\"766\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4774\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.imperial.ac.uk\/imperial-medicine\/files\/2024\/07\/Screenshot-2024-07-15-at-12.51.00.png\" alt=\"Dr Charles Ayume (middle) with Prof Alison Holmes and Dr Andrew Kambugu, who joined the panel discussion and shared his expertise as a medical doctor and a member of the Uganda parliament \" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4774\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dr Charles Ayume (middle) with Prof Alison Holmes and Dr Andrew Kambugu, who joined the panel discussion and shared his expertise as a medical doctor and a member of the Uganda parliament<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Representatives from Makerere and other centres of the CAMO-Net collaboration then delivered presentations on their work. Topics ranged from trends in antibiotic prescribing among People Living with HIV (PLWH) to innovative approaches to optimising antibiotic therapy. Dr Barbara Castelnuovo, Head of Research at IDI, and her colleagues presented their groundbreaking work on how data-driven strategies are improving patient outcomes in Uganda.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Collaboration and Cultural Immersion<\/span><\/b> <span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4775\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4775\" style=\"width: 1166px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1166\" height=\"762\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4775\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.imperial.ac.uk\/imperial-medicine\/files\/2024\/07\/Screenshot-2024-07-15-at-12.53.04.png\" alt=\"A unforgettable night at Ndere Cultural Centre \" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4775\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A unforgettable night at Ndere Cultural Centre<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">We then participated in a hands-on workshop focused on datasets and dashboards for AMR research.

The day ended with a delightful dinner at the Ndere Cultural Centre, filled with traditional Ugandan dance and music performances that gave us a real taste of Ugandan heritage.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Thursday started early with a visit to the IDI-McKinnell Knowledge Centre, where the IDI Drama team put on an entertaining performance around patient and practitioner\u2019s antibiotic behaviours. The team are active in their local community, with public engagement activities to raise awareness of AMR via drama performance is at the forefront of their activity. We can learn a lot from the work they are doing in their community!\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4776\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4776\" style=\"width: 1158px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1158\" height=\"772\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4776\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.imperial.ac.uk\/imperial-medicine\/files\/2024\/07\/Screenshot-2024-07-15-at-12.54.12.png\" alt=\"The colleagues from the Infectious Diseases Institute at Mackerere University showing us how they engaged with their community to raise awareness AMR through drama and dance performance \" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4776\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The colleagues from the Infectious Diseases Institute at Mackerere University showing us how they engaged with their community to raise awareness AMR through drama and dance performance<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Dr Andrew Kambugu then led us on a tour of key IDI units, including the ACE unit and the Global Health Security (GHS) division.

Together, we explored practical examples of linked datasets and discussed data governance challenges, which I hope my colleagues found informative, and their comments and questions for me were certainly thought-provoking. I came away from the session with even more to think about.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4777\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4777\" style=\"width: 1172px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1172\" height=\"770\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4777\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.imperial.ac.uk\/imperial-medicine\/files\/2024\/07\/Screenshot-2024-07-15-at-12.55.51.png\" alt=\"During the workshop on data and data linkage, I highlighted innovative research within CAMO-Net to use data intelligently to address AMR \" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4777\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">During the workshop on data and data linkage, I highlighted innovative research within CAMO-Net to use data intelligently to address AMR<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Friday was dedicated to developing the CAMO-Net Global Data Repository (GDR).

I was amazed by the advanced research happening there, and the work of my colleagues in Kampala is informed by their expertise in dealing with large scale outbreaks of HIV in the country. It was a fitting conclusion to a week full of learning and collaboration.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Overall, my visit to Makerere University was a whirlwind of knowledge sharing, cultural immersion, and professional growth.
