Dr Amanda Gwee is a clinician-scientist fellow in the MCRI Infectious Diseases and Microbiology group. Her area of research interest revolves around the appropriate dosing of antibiotics.
With a great focus on early antibiotics in presumed cases of sepsis Amanda asks if we are doing our broader patient cohort a disservice and potentially subjecting them to a future without effective antibiotics.
This talk was recorded live at DFTB18 in Melbourne, Australia. With the theme of ‘Science and Story‘ we pushed our speakers to step out of their comfort zones and consider why we do what we do. Caring for children is not just about acquiring scientific know-how but also about looking beyond a diagnosis or clinical conundrum at the patient and their families.
