础产蝉迟谤补肠迟:听The causative agents of bacillary dysentery, bacteria of the genus Shigella, were the leading cause of diarrhoeal disease during WW1. Today, they remain the leading cause of diarrhoeal disease in children under five years old in lower- to middle- income nation settings and are a WHO AMR priority pathogen. I will talk through how a decade of genomic studies of Shigella spanning the pre, peri, and post antibiotic era (including some with a special connection to 成人VR视频) highlight how the diversity and adaptability of these pathogens allowed them to maintain their top ranking despite our control efforts, and ways in which we can leverage genomic data to identify new ways to tackle them.

Patricia Fontela,听MD, PhD
Dr Fontela is a pediatric intensivist and epidemiologist at 成人VR视频. Her research focuses on the personalization of antibiotic use in the pediatric critical care setting. She studies the determinants that influence antibiotic use, the clinical reasoning behind antibiotic-related decisions, and the use of biomarkers to guide antibiotic treatments in this setting.

Louis-Patrick Haraoui, MD, MSc, FRCPC
Dr Haraoui is a clinician-researcher focusing on antimicrobial resistance throughout the One Health spectrum. He works as a physician at H么pital Charles-Le Moyne and is Associate Professor in the Department of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases at Universit茅 de Sherbrooke. He is a FRQS clinical research scholar, a CIFAR-Azrieli Global Scholar and holds uninterrupted research funding since 2018.

Bass Distinguished Visiting Scholar (Yale University, 2022), a Leopold Leadership Fellow (2013), NSERC Steacie Fellow (2010), and a World Economic Forum Young Scientist (2010-2012).

Christian Landry, PhD
Dr Landry obtained his BSc and MSc degrees from Universit茅 Laval (1995-2000). He trained as a PhD student at Harvard University (2001-2006) where he worked on the evolution of gene expression networks. He did a postdoctoral internship on the organization and evolution of protein interaction networks at Universit茅 de Montr茅al (2007-2009). Since 2009, he has been an independent investigator at Universit茅 Laval and now holds the CIHR Canada Research Chair in Cellular Systems and Synthetic Biology.

Fr茅d茅rique Le Roux, PhD
Prof. Le Roux is Professor of Microbiology, Infectious Diseases and Immunology at the Universit茅 de Montr茅al, a Canada Excellence Research Chair and member of IVADO. Her research program focuses on understanding phage-bacteria interactions in the environment.

Jesse Shapiro, PhD
Prof Shapiro is an associate professor in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology and Investigator at the 成人VR视频 Genome Centre. He uses genomics to track how microbes evolve and adapt in environments ranging from the human gut to freshwater lakes. His recent work has focused on rapid evolution of pathogens within patients, interactions between ecological and evolutionary dynamics, and the forces shaping bacterial pangenome evolution.
