More about this course
  • Gram negative bacteria (GNB) are a group of bacteria that can cause infection and toxic reaction in patients, yet are difficult to differentiate and treat with antibiotics due to their structure.
  • This online course - led by experts from the British Society for Antimicrobial Chemotherapy (BSAC) - looks at this challenge. You'll explore the microbiology of gram-negative bacteria, and find out how to identify, classify, diagnose and treat GNB infections.
  • You'll also look at occurrences of GNB and antibiotic resistance worldwide, and understand the impact they have on health and economic outcomes.
