Long-Term Temporal Stability of the Resistome in Sewage from Copenhagen
mSystems, 2020 Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major threat to global health, and it is crucial to understand the epidemiological aspects in order to predict the emergence and propagation of AMR genes.

Epidemiologic and Genomic Reidentification of Yaws, Liberia [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2021 We confirmed endemicity and autochthonous transmission of yaws in Liberia after a population-based, community-led burden estimation (56,825 participants). Serologically confirmed yaws was rare and focal at population level (24 cases; 2.6 [95% CI 1.4-3.9] cases/10,000 population) with similar clinical epidemiology to other endemic countries in West ...

Global genomic epidemiology of Streptococcus pyogenes
Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2020 Streptococcus pyogenes is one of the Top 10 human infectious disease killers worldwide causing a range of clinical manifestations in humans. Colonizing a range of ecological niches within its sole host, the human, is key to the ability of this opportunistic pathogen to cause direct and post-infectious manifestations.

Progress and challenges in virus genomic epidemiology [PDF]
Trends in Parasitology, 2021 Genomic epidemiology, which links pathogen genomes with associated metadata to understand disease transmission, has become a key component of outbreak response. Decreasing costs of genome sequencing and increasing computational power provide opportunities to generate and analyse large viral genomic datasets that aim to uncover the spatial scales of ...

Genomic Epidemiology of Tuberculosis [PDF]
, 2017 The application of next generation sequencing technologies has opened the door to a new molecular epidemiology of tuberculosis, in which we can now look at transmission at a resolution not possible before. At the same time, new technical and analytical challenges have appeared, and we are still exploring the wider potential of this new technology ...

Accessory Genomic Epidemiology of Cocirculating Acinetobacter baumannii Clones
mSystems, 2021 Whole-genome sequencing for epidemiological investigations (genomic epidemiology) has been of paramount importance to understand the transmission dynamics of many bacterial (and nonbacterial) pathogens.

The Era of Genomic Epidemiology [PDF]
Neuroepidemiology, 2009 The recent revolution in genomics is already having a profound impact on the practice of epidemiology. The purpose of this commentary is to demonstrate how genomics and epidemiology will continue to rely heavily on each other, now and in the future, by illustrating a number of interaction points between these 2 disciplines: (1) the use of genomics to ...

Mycolicibacterium fortuitum genomic epidemiology, resistome and virulome [PDF]
Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2021 Mycolicibacterium fortuitum is an opportunistic pathogen associated with human and animal infection worldwide. Studies concerning this species are mainly represented by case reports, some of them addressing drug susceptibility with a focus on a specific geographic region, so there is a gap in relation to the global epidemiological scenario.We aimed ...
