NIAMRRE Featured Project: Educational Modules for AMR Science Communication
2026-03-31 11:00 - 12:00
Date: Tuesday, March 31
Time: 11:00 AM- Noon CT
Who Should Attend: Veterinary School Faculty and Practicing Veterinarians
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) continues to pose a growing threat within veterinary medicine, making effective antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) more important than ever. Yet, while veterinary students receive strong technical training in AMR and AMS, many report feeling underprepared to communicate these concepts to clients in real-world practice.
Veterinary school faculty and practicing veterinarians are invited to join NIAMRRE Tuesday, March 31, 2026, from 11:00 AM – Noon CT for a webinar to discuss strengthening science communication for antimicrobial stewardship in veterinary medicine. This webinar introduces a newly developed set of science communication training modules designed specifically for veterinary medical students and practicing veterinarians that addresses critical gaps in AMR and AMS communication education. Register
Participants will gain insight into the four interactive online modules, which cover communication strategies in:

Professional, social, and clinical settings

Navigating challenging AMR related conversations related conversations

Preparing for future stewardship-focused discussions with clients

The webinar will also highlight lessons learned from pilot testing with more than 400 students across three veterinary institutions, offering a preview of how these tools will support current and future veterinarians in promoting responsible antibiotic use.
Join us to explore how enhanced science communication training can strengthen AMR mitigation efforts and better equip the next generation of veterinarians. Register now
