The jury of 18 Liverpool City Region residents met and questioned key expert witnesses who gave them insight into the local and worldwide impacts of AMR. A potential University of Liverpool research programme aimed at tackling AMR was also considered. Jurors’ views on AMR and the research programme were recorded fully in the Citizen Jury Reports. This event marks the beginning of a conversation with the people of Liverpool regarding a proposed AMR research programme.
As a jury we have collaborated to find the best ways of both protecting public data and providing information to the relevant bodies in the continued effort to research and resolve AMR. The work has been challenging and multifaceted, with many different perspectives which all raised unique points

This jury will provide insights for two University of Liverpool programmes; the Antimicrobial Pharmacodynamics and Therapeutics (APT) Group (formally known as the Centre of Excellence in Infectious Disease Research (CEIDR)) and the Civic Data Cooperative (CDC).
