About this episode
In this World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week episode, we meet Bee Yean Ng, the lead antimicrobial stewardship pharmacist at Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust. Starting her journey in Malaysia and completing her pharmacy degree through a partnership with the University of Strathclyde, Bee shares her transition from community pharmacy training to hospital practice. Despite initial challenges in making this sector switch, her positive mindset and flexibility to relocate helped her seize new opportunities.
During her foundational years at Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust, Bee worked under the mentorship of Claire Brandish and Kate Russell-Hobbs, who helped shape her clinical development.
Bee's career took an international turn when she became involved with the Commonwealth Partnership for Antimicrobial Stewardship grant, working between the UK and Uganda. This experience, combined with the Chief Pharmaceutical Officer's Global Health Fellowship, sparked her passion for global health and led to her first publication. Now at Oxford, she leads a partnership with Kilifi County Referral Hospital in Kenya, demonstrating her growth from team member to project leader.
