(ANSORP) Asian Network for Surveillance of Resistant Pathogens

Korea South

ANSORP was organized as the first multicountry collaborative study group in Asia for the surveillance of antimicrobial resistance. Organization of the ANSORP was first initiated by Prof. Jae-Hoon Song (Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan Univ., Seoul, Korea) in 1996 to perform the international surveillance studies on antimicrobial resistance in the Asian region. The initial project by the ANSORP group was the surveillance of pneumococcal resistance.
Since 1996, ANSORP has been expanding in structures and organizations.

ANSORP was reorganized in 1998 for the second-year project which is the nasopharyngeal carriage of drug-resistant pneumococci in Asian children. Among original members, several principal investigators did not join the second-year project. As of 2006, 52 principal investigators from 22 centers in 13 countries are participating in the ANSORP Study Group. ANSORP is one of the world-largest collaborative study groups for the antimicrobial research.
