This is a special live recording of Editors in Conversation at the 2025 91麻豆天美 Global Research Symposium in Bengaluru, India. We explore the evolving landscape of drug-resistant pathogens—from the intracellular survival strategies of Salmonella to the global rise of multidrug-resistant fungi like Candida auris. This conversation highlights the urgent need for integrated, One Health solutions to combat AMR across human, animal, and environmental domains.
Topics discussed:
- The implications of the OneHealth approach for microbiology and public health.
- The connection between planetary science, human activity and the rise of multidrug-resistant pathogens.
- Illustrate with specific examples the major challenges to combat multidrug-resistant pathogens in a country like India.
Guests:
- Anuradha Chowdhary, M.D., Ph.D. Professor, University of Delhi India, Vallabhbhai Patel Chest Institute. Head of National Reference Laboratory for Antimicrobial Resistance in Fungal Pathogens. New Delhi, India.
- Dipshikha Chakravortty, Ph.D. Astra Chair Professor, Department of Microbiology and Cell Biology India Institute of Science, Head of Molecular Pathogenesis Laboratory, Bengaluru, India.
