A PhD position is available at the University of Greenwich, focusing on the cultural surveillance of antibiotic-resistant Enterobacterales using a One Health approach. The research will explore the prevalence and transmission of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) across poultry farms, fresh produce systems, and wastewater treatment plants, aiming to inform interventions for global health and food system sustainability. The project is supervised by Stacey Duvenage and Hayley Thompson, with the Natural Resources Institute as a key partner. Applicants should have a strong background in biological sciences, microbiology, environmental science, or related fields, and an interest in AMR, food safety, or genomics. The position offers the opportunity to work in a dynamic, transdisciplinary team at the forefront of AMR research. Funding details are not specified in the post; candidates should consult the official University of Greenwich advert for full information. The application deadline is 15th October 2025.

The University of Greenwich is recruiting both a PhD student and a postdoctoral researcher to join the IOSAR project, which investigates the movement of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria through poultry farms, soils, water, food, and surrounding communities in the UK and South Africa. The postdoctoral researcher will support integrated AMR surveillance across water, wastewater, animal waste, and food systems, integrating data from microbiology and climate sources, and contributing to innovative practices. The PhD studentship will focus on exploring the prevalence of resistant Enterobacterales across poultry farms, fresh produce systems, and wastewater treatment plants. Both roles offer the opportunity to work at the forefront of AMR research, contribute to transdisciplinary science, and make a real-world impact on global health and food system sustainability. The positions are supervised by Stacey Duvenage and Hayley Thompson at the University of Greenwich. Applicants should have relevant backgrounds in microbiology, environmental science, or related fields. The application deadline is 15 October 2025.
