Kristin and Jane spoke to Professor Alex Broom from the University of Sydney. Alex is Professor of Sociology at the Department of Sociology and Social Policy.
We asked Alex:
-
What is sociology, and how does it apply to studies of healthcare and illness?
-
How are principles of sociology particularly relevant to addressing rising antimicrobial resistance?
-
What effect does organisational culture have on the use of antimicrobials?
-
How can sociology principles be used as a stewardship tool?
