" "If your actions require others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more, you are a leader", John Quincy Adams. Ever since I was young, I had been so fascinated about becoming a leader anywhere I find myself. Leadership qualities and skills are essential to one's professional career. They encompasse wide range of values, changes and mentorship that catalyst and make possible the attainment of one's futuristic goals.
This Millennium Fellowship will help me consciously develop and refine my leadership approach to solving and providing solutions to problems. Moreover, this program will enhance my communication skills, decision making, self-esteem and enable me build inter-personal relationship and understanding of individual's perspectives through interaction with people from different race and culture. In the real world today, leadership functionality is highly crucial. Extensive and outstanding leadership skills are needed to innovate ideas and navigate the barriers in the society. Lastly, through teachings and trainings, I will be able to apply the knowledge gained to real-world scenerios via case studies, role playing, and experimental activities. "

Millennium Fellowship Project: Prevalence of Antimicrobial Resistance in the Environment

The issue of AMR( Antimicrobial Resistance) presents a substantial risk to the overall well-being of the global population and is increasingly becoming a matter of great apprehension on a worldwide scale. AMR pertains to the capacity of microorganisms, encompassing bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, to withstand the therapeutic impact of previously efficacious drugs in combating them. This phenomenon undermines the efficacy of antibiotics, antivirals, and other pharmaceuticals, resulting in heightened morbidity, mortality, and healthcare expenditures. Microbes are under selective pressure to become resistant and acquire adaptive mutations or genes when antimicrobial agents are misused or overused in healthcare, veterinary, and agricultural settings. This then enables their survival and persistence in environments saturated with antibiotics and antiseptics that would previously have readily destroyed them. Bacteria and other microbes have a remarkable ability to rapidly adapt, mutate, and share adaptive genetic elements via horizontal gene transfer mechanisms allowing them to develop diverse resistance mechanisms. Microorganisms that develop AMR may make human and animal diseases challenging to cure. Resistance prolongs sickness, increases spread risk, lengthens hospital stays, requires more costly therapies, and raises fatality rates.
