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

The emergence of epidemiology in the genomics age [PDF]
While observational epidemiology is considered to be the scientific foundation of public health2 it is often viewed as a ‘soft science’ limited by an inherent inability to fully control for confounding, misclassification, and selection bias.3 Enter the ‘genomics era’.4,5 With the completion of the Human Genome Project, and the eventual identification ...

The Era of Genomic Epidemiology [PDF]
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 ...

Genomic epidemiology and multilevel genome typing of Bordetella pertussis
Abstract Bordetella pertussis is 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.

A global network for investigating the genomic epidemiology of malaria.
Large-scale studies of genomic variation could assist efforts to eliminate malaria. But there are scientific, ethical and practical challenges to carrying out such studies in developing countries, where the burden of disease is greatest.

Contribution of microbial genomics to cholera epidemiology
In 2022, the burden of cholera—an acute watery diarrheal disease caused by Vibrio cholerae serogroup O1 (or more rarely O139) bacteria, which produce cholera toxin—remains high in many African and Asian countries.

Genomic Epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 in Pakistan [PDF]
Abstract COVID-19 has swept globally and Pakistan is no exception. To investigate the initial introductions and transmissions of the SARS-CoV-2 in Pakistan, we performed the largest genomic epidemiology study of COVID-19 in Pakistan and generated 150 complete SARS-CoV-2 genome sequences from samples collected from March 16 to June 1 ...

Long-Term Temporal Stability of the Resistome in Sewage from Copenhagen
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.
