Why become a member

We know that antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global problem that will
require international and collaborative solutions. SEDRIC is committed to
bringing together the AMR community to provide useful information and
solutions for surveillance and epidemiology. Our members are an
important part of those solutions.

By becoming a member of SEDRIC, you’ll be able to connect with global
network of over 100 surveillance and epidemiology professionals. You’ll
also be able to take part in our events and working groups, and contribute
to our on-going research.

Membership activities

Members can engage with SEDRIC through a range of activities:

• Access to a network of leading experts committed to knowledge and data sharing.
• Shape the AMR scientific agenda by having the opportunity to participate in SEDRIC Working Groups and meetings. Opportunities will be posted to our website.
• Provide connectivity with key stakeholders, including the UK Department of Health, WHO, CDC, ECDC and PHE, FAO, OIE, Gates Foundation and National Governments.
• Attend the annual invitation-only SEDRIC meeting.

Participants may have the opportunity to present their research.
• Contribute to Board meetings as and when requested.

Who can become a member

SEDRIC membership is open to individuals who have an interest in any aspect of the surveillance and epidemiology of drug-resistant infections.
