amr.watch provides an interactive platform to analyze and visualize AMR trends from global WGS data, enabling ongoing situational awareness for research and policy.

This study uses whole genome sequencing to characterize Salmonella isolates from the Philippines, revealing AMR patterns and population structure compared to traditional methods.

This study uses whole-genome sequencing to analyze carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates in the Philippines, identifying resistance mechanisms and transmission patterns.

Whole genome sequencing identified three previously unrecognized Klebsiella pneumoniae outbreaks in neonatal intensive care units in the Philippines, revealing an epidemic plasmid associated with carbapenem resistance.

The paper sequenced N. gonorrhoeae isolates from the Philippines to assess antimicrobial resistance and genetic diversity, finding high resistance to penicillin, ciprofloxacin, and tetracycline and genetic diversity within global lineage A.

The paper sequenced S. aureus isolates from the Philippines to analyze MRSA clones and resistance patterns, finding a limited number of genetic clones and high concordance between phenotypic and genotypic resistance.

The paper integrates whole-genome sequencing into the Philippines' antimicrobial resistance surveillance program to better understand and track carbapenem resistance in key bacterial species.

This study sequenced 176 Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from the Philippines to characterize their genomic diversity, antimicrobial resistance mechanisms, and clonal spread.
