Description

Research Question: What are the factors contributing to the rising levels of antibiotic resistance in the U.S and how can this health issue be mitigated?

This week, you will analyze and discuss a chart of your choice.

Analyze and discuss the graph or chart you have chosen. (Note – it is highly recommended that you choose a graph or chart in a journal article for your research topic, as a graph or chart is required in the final week 8 research poster).
