Antimicrobial Surveillance
JMI Laboratories has over two decades of extensive experience in performing surveillance studies for new drug development and post-marketing monitoring of approved drugs. Every year, JMI receives around 40,000 clinical isolates of bacteria and fungi through a network of more than 150 medical centers from more than 35 countries worldwide. JMI uses a consortium-based participation model, which allows for inclusion at a complete or partial level geographic, pathogen or indication specific.
