Bacterial genomic epidemiology with mixed samples [PDF]
Genomic epidemiology is a tool for tracing transmission of pathogens based on whole-genome sequencing. We introduce the mGEMS pipeline for genomic epidemiology with plate sweeps representing mixed samples of a target pathogen, opening the possibility to sequence all colonies on selective plates with a single DNA extraction and sequencing step.

The Human Genome Epidemiology Network [PDF]
Progress on the Human Genome Project has led to an explosion of genetic information (1). Of the estimated 100,000 human genes, more than 9,000 have been discovered, and more than 5,000 have been mapped to specific chromosomes (2). There are approximately 500 genes for which there are genetic tests used in medical practice (3). Almost daily, discoveries

Human genome epidemiology, progress and future [PDF]
Human genome epidemiology (HuGE) uses systematic applications of epidemiologic methods to assess the impact of human genetic variation on health and disease. In the past ten years, human genome epidemiology has made great progresses along with advances in genomics technologies, which make it possible for the examination of genetic variants in a large ...

Genomic epidemiology and multilevel genome typing ofBordetella pertussis
AbstractBordetella pertussisis responsible for the respiratory infectious disease pertussis (or whooping cough), which causes one of the most severe diseases in infants, although it can be prevented by whole cell and acellular vaccines. The recent resurgence of pertussis is partially due to pathogen adaptation to vaccines as well as resistance to ...

Genomic epidemiology of artemisinin resistant malaria [PDF]
The current epidemic of artemisinin resistant Plasmodium falciparum in Southeast Asia is the result of a soft selective sweep involving at least 20 independent kelch13 mutations. In a large global survey, we find that kelch13 mutations which cause resistance in Southeast Asia are present at low frequency in Africa.
