📢New job posting!📢
Are you excited by the idea of building global infrastructure to make pathogen sequencing more accessible, interpretable, and equitable? 🧑🏻‍💻🧬

My group at @swisstph.ch has an opening working with ARTIC2, @pathoplexus.org, & Loculus - read on!

UShER-TB: Scalable, Comprehensive, Accessible Phylogenomic Analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacterium responsible for the Tuberculosis (TB) disease, remains a leading global infectious disease killer, and genomic epidemiology is essential for understanding its...

We have team up with @russcd.bsky.social team to bring the fantastic SARS-CoV-2 UShER to TB phylogenomic data. We explore applications in phylogenetics, public health and aDNA among others for de novo phylogenies and for placing samples in a >129K genome phylogeny! 👇

The injustice of tuberculosis Why would John Green, a best-selling American novelist, write a book about tuberculosis? The answer can be found in his new book Everything is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadlies...

On World Tuberculosis Day, we acknowledge that “tuberculosis is both a form and expression of injustice,” as @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social put it and recommit to ending TB

Today in the midst of a man-made crisis for science and health we mark #WorldTBDay. The irony is that because of the gem of 🇿🇦🇺🇸🌍 TB science we have better tools than ever and with sustained commitment and funding we coule actually #EndTB. Join us as we discuss the state of TB today at 1pm SAST!

Yes! The study is an expansion on the original Nat Com paper, all the kudos to Margarida Saraiva as she is the one leading. These are strains strongly associated to mild vs severe TB with consistent immune response signals in different models and human donors
