Genomics to Combat Resistance against Antibiotics in Community-acquired LRTI in Europe - GRACE

ESCMID is a partner of GRACE, which is a network of excellence devoted to tackling the increasing problem of resistance to antibiotics when dealing with lower respiratory tract infections, such as bronchitis or pneumonia. To this goal, GRACE pools European expertise and excellence in this field to increase knowledge and competence and to raise professional and public awareness.

The GRACE educational platform provides this acquired knowledge through state-of-the-art training opportunities. These comprise one-day PG courses, arranged by ERS and ESCMID during their annual congresses, three-day workshops and the freely available GRACE e-learning platform with recordings and downloadable material from past GRACE events. Target audience includes primary care and hospital physicians, researchers and public health specialists interested in better management of community-acquired LRTI.
