OverviewAI-generated summary

Ashleah Courtney is a researcher at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Her work focuses on infectious diseases, particularly those affecting neonates and children, and investigating antibiotic prescribing practices. Courtney has published on rare causes of neonatal meningitis, such as Pasteurella multocida, and has also investigated the genetic characterization of Plasmodium vivax linked to malaria transmission in the US. Her research extends to improving outpatient antibiotic prescribing for common infections like urinary tract infections, evaluating the impact of clinical decision support systems and automated EHR alerts on prescribing patterns. She has also conducted quality improvement initiatives assessing broad-spectrum antibiotic usage in pediatric intensive care units and the feasibility of antibiotic de-escalation in viral encephalitis.
