The EFFORT (Ecology from Farm to Fork Of microbial drug Resistance and Transmission) project is a 5 year research programme (2013 - 2018) studying the complex ecology of antimicrobial resistance and the interactions between bacterial communities, commensals and pathogens in animals, the food chain and the environment. During these 5 years, the project has been conducted by a combination of epidemiological and ecological studies using newly developed molecular and bio-informatics technologies. Coordinator Jaap Wagenaar, Utrecht University, gives here a short introduction to the project. More information can be found at: www.effort-against-amr.eu
