Lecture series: Klebsiella pneumoniae genomic epidemiology

 

The KlebNET team are pleased to share slides from the “Klebsiella pneumoniae Genomic Epidemiology and Antimicrobial Resistance” lecture series!

PDFs of the slides are available at: https://github.com/klebgenomics/KlebNetTrainingSep2025

A version of these slides were presented live by KlebNET team members as part of the GenEpi-BioTrain – Genetic Epidemiology and Bioinformatics Training Programme run by the European CDC (ECDC).

To see/hear the video recordings of the KlebNET lectures you need to enrol (free!) in the GenEpi-BioTrain and navigate to the Klebsiella session.
