Our recent preprint provides a comprehensive assessment of chikungunya virus (CHIKV) epidemics in Brazil and contributes to understanding chikungunya fever (CHIKF) recurrence in urban settings: 🦟🦠🇧🇷 Available on: medrxiv.org/content/10.110… Please see 🧵👇

Hear from Ingra Morales Claro & @Flahless1, leaders in the field of infectious disease research, who will share their experiences in developing & implementing fast, accessible pathogen surveillance protocols with #nanopore sequencing: bit.ly/3ga0lB0 #asmngs

OPPORTUNITY: sign up for this Oxford Nanopore webinar with Ingra Morales Claro @caddeproject Imperial College London & @Flahless1 on implementing fast accessible viral surveillance with nanopore sequencing 👇 go.technologynetworks.com/surveillance-w…

Amazing team work for our first MinION Mk1C run - Project ONESVEC - PI Rita Sousa, INSA ✨ Great collaboration work 😃 Thanks to Ingra Morales Claro Filipe Romero Nuno R. Faria 🙏🙏🙏 Oxford Nanopore

This week in São Paulo, CADDE Project is back running the ‘Portable metagenomics for pathogen surveillance’ workshop. Students are getting hands-on experience learning rapid protocols and real-time Oxford Nanopore sequencing to characterize viruses with pandemic potential

Participants are learning cutting-edge techniques to identify viral pathogens with real-world samples, such as the untargeted metagenomic ‘Rapid SMART-9N’ method by Ingra Morales Claro & colleagues wellcomeopenresearch.org/articles/6-241

.CADDE Project demonstrating the use of portable genomics for pathogen surveillance (with pandemic potential) to students in Brazil. And another great example of how the #Nanopore Community is enabling the analysis of anything, by anyone, anywhere. #AnythingAnyoneAnywhere

I love this picture. Day 1 of the hands-on part of the workshop & students are looking at real-time data. Zoom in on the screen which shows the RAMPART software - you’ll see full genome coverage of the “mystery” virus - correctly identified as Dengue in ~17 minutes of sequencing

⚠️ No #Ceará, #chikungunya matou mais do que #dengue na última década. Dados do maior estudo epidemiológico sobre o tema mostram que vírus causa surtos explosivos em pequenos bolsões pelo país. Artigo a respeito acaba de ser publicado em The Lancet Microbe. agencia.fapesp.br/41078/

We are delighted to share our study "Spatiotemporal dynamics and recurrence of chikungunya virus in Brazil: an epidemiological study" now published at The Lancet Microbe!🦟🦠🇧🇷 Available: thelancet.com/journals/lanmi…

Excelente reportagem do André Biernath para BBC News Brasil sobre nosso recente estudo de 10 anos da chikungunya no Brasil! Disponível em bbc.com/portuguese/art…

✨Saiu hoje um artigo sobre a Chikungunya nos estados do Ceará, Tocantins e Pernambuco! Vamos entender melhor o assunto?

NEW EPISODE #ScienceInContext! This week Sabine L.van Elsland speaks with Nuno R. Faria Imperial College London about their publication The Lancet Microbe on chikungunya in Brazil 👇

A UK-Brazil project investigating arboviruses like zika & yellow fever was well equipped to respond when covid-19 hit. The team applied their skills and cutting-edge technology to do rapid sequencing of covid-19 and supported Brazil's response to the pandemic Watch 📽️👇

Yesterday, we concluded our advanced school in pandemic preparedness. 12 days of intensive work with a multidisciplinary faculty and students. We learned so much together in this amazing experience! 1/
