🧬 Episode 19 of the #GenomicHorizons Webinar Series features @I_am_Amofa (@NMIMR_UG). Explore how @BiostructA is building Africa’s next generation of structural biologists. 📅 19 Aug | 🕒 Time: 14:00–15:00 UTC 🔗 Register: us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regi…

🧬 What does it take to turn pathogen genomic data into meaningful public health action? Lessons from #GMI16 in Tunis highlight the importance of data sharing, interoperability & the systems needed to strengthen global genomic surveillance. 🔗Read here: bit.ly/4zyrGAd

🧬 Sharing data helps the global pathogen genomics and public health community connect information from different sources, identify patterns, and build a clearer picture of public health challenges. #PHA4GE #GenomicsExplained #DataSharing

🧬 Meet Iqra Saleh, a computational biologist working across bioinformatics, metagenomics and pathogen genomics at Aga Khan University. Discover her journey from curiosity about biology to a career at the intersection of biology and computing. Read here: bit.ly/4yagNn0

🧬 What happens after genomic data is generated? Bioinformatics uses computational methods to process, analyse and interpret that data — helping turn sequencing data into useful information for public health. #PHA4GE #GenomicsExplained #Bioinformatics

🧬 Last time, #GenomicsExplained explored AMR. This week, we’re widening the lens with metagenomics — studying genetic material from multiple organisms within a sample. Explore wastewater metagenomics in Africa: bit.ly/4hzkz3c #PHA4GE #Metagenomics

Great to see PHA4GE community members taking the stage at #GMI16 in Tunis. 🧬🌍 @torstenseemann, @happy_khan, @firefoxx66, @DoctorRuth and @EducatedMicrobe shared work on genomic surveillance, data platforms, metadata and data sharing. #PHA4GE #GenomicSurveillance #OneHealth

🧬 Last time, #GenomicsExplained explored mutations, using AMR as an example of how genetic changes can matter. This week, we’re following that thread with a closer look at AMR. Explore PHA4GE’s hAMRonization tool: github.com/pha4ge/hAMRonizat…

🧬 What’s happening in the Data Structures Working Group? From new pathogen genomic data standards to upcoming work with IPSN in Nepal & exploring integration with HL7 FHIR, the group continues to advance data interoperability. Read the latest update: bit.ly/4xN7cTf

🧬 In this edition of #GenomicsExplained, we’re exploring mutation and how genetic changes can affect pathogens, including changes that may contribute to antimicrobial resistance. 🔗 Explore the research behind PHA4GE’s AMR work: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… #PHA4GE #Mutation

💧 Have you explored PHA4GE’s Wastewater Surveillance Strategies Guidance? We’d like to hear your feedback on the guidance and how useful it is to your work. Share your thoughts directly in the comment boxes — no GitHub expertise required. 🔗 pha4ge.github.io/wastewater-…

This week, members of the PHA4GE Secretariat joined colleagues from WHO’s International Pathogen Surveillance Network (IPSN) in Berlin for engagements focused on exchanging perspectives and exploring opportunities for continued collaboration. #PHA4GE #WHO #IPSN

🧬 Meet Khaleila Flisher in our latest #MemberSpotlight, where she shares her journey across bioinformatics, human genetics and disease research—and her hopes for greater representation in genomics. Read more: pha4ge.org/articles/member-s…

🧬 In this edition of #GenomicsExplained, we’re exploring lineages and their role in understanding pathogen evolution and spread. Explore PHA4GE’s Identifying SARS-CoV-2 Recombinants guidance: bit.ly/4hh500U #PHA4GE #Lineages

🧬 Meet Dr Shurendar Selva Kumar, a PHA4GE postdoctoral research fellow working to advance TB genomics standardization & implementation across Asia. In our latest profile, he shares his journey into pathogen genomics and the work ahead. Read more⁠: bit.ly/4xDh02J

🧬 This edition of #GenomicsExplained explores phylogenetics and how genomic comparisons can help investigate relationships and patterns of spread. 🎥 Explore more in Episode 13 of #GenomicHorizons with @msmicrobiocode: youtube.com/live/4yZEERA2w-8…

🧬 What happens when a pathogen’s genetic information changes? This edition of #GenomicsExplained explores variants, how pathogens change and spread, and what genomic data can tell us about those changes. #PHA4GE #Variants

🧬 In case you missed it… Episode 19 of the #PHA4GE Genomic Horizons Webinar Series explored how @BiostructA is helping build Africa’s next generation of structural biologists, with @I_am_Amofa. 🎥 Watch: youtube.com/live/woQTryDIBKg…

Dr Gary Wong of the Institut Pasteur du Laos discusses surveillance of avian influenza viruses in live bird markets and how genomic approaches can help detect and analyse viruses circulating in high-risk environments. 🎥 Full Interview: bit.ly/45Edk4o
