Progress, Potential, and Possibilities Interview Series: Combating Antimicrobial Resistance

Director of the Global Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Research and Development (R&D) Hub, Dr Lesley Ogilvie, was featured on an episode of the interview series Progress, Potential, and Possibilities, hosted by Ira Pastor.

Lesley joined the Global AMR R&D Hub in February 2021, hoping to combine scientific insight with targeted action to help combat the silent pandemic of AMR, following over ten years’ experience working in academia as a researcher and lecturer in Microbial Ecogenomics, applying molecular and bioinformatics techniques to tackle questions regarding the human gut microbiome/virome in health and disease.

Lesley has a BSc (Hons) in Ecology from University of Dundee, UK.; an MSc in Marine Resource Development and Protection from Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, UK; a Ph.D. in Environmental Sciences from University of East Anglia; and did Postdoctoral work at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics.
