Real time bioinformatics team cracking on dozens of Nanopore runs Oxford Nanopore for Zika, Chykungunuya and Dengue in Brazil... We worked 14h a day but could generate high quality whole genomes in days! Fun, fun, fun! Nando Faria @EvolveDotZoo CADDE Project Luiz Alcantara Tulio de Oliveira

Happy birthday to Xavier ! What an amazing guy, worked so hard and focused for 12h in his birthday and still had a smile in his face! We are now going our to celebrate it! Ingra Morales Claro Luiz Alcantara Marta Giovanetti Vagner Fonseca

ZIBRA team is arriving at the OPAS/Pan American Health Organization paho World Health Organization (WHO) in Brasilia to present the real time genomic surveillance results. Marta Giovanetti Marcio Nando Faria @EvolveDotZoo Luiz Alcantara Vagner Fonseca Ingra Morales Claro

Our Oxford Nanopore motorhome got a nice shad spot at the headquarters of the Pan American Health Organization paho World Health Organization (WHO) in Brazil. What a trip, 3,500km, 4 states in Brazil, 100s of viral whole genomes in 15 days... Here, we present the Dengue, Chykungunya and Zika results from 2019

Pesquisadores da Fiocruz, que estão participando do ZiBRA Project, estão com a equipe do projeto, na PAHO/WHO, apresentando os resultados do mapeamento dos #arbovírus circulantes na região Centro-Oeste do país. #Ciência #Pesquisa #SaúdePública

This is the rejection letter for the work that just won the Nobel Prize. Don’t stop believing! I should save all of mine and maybe one day some stranger will think it’s an amazing relic and tweet it...

So happy to co-author another great paper on Yellow Fever outbreak in Brazil of 2019 with Nando Faria Marta Giovanetti Luiz Alcantara Vagner Fonseca Xavier Fantastic to see portable sequencing & bioinformatics analysis publish results quickly! Oxford Nanopore krisp.org.za/publications.p…

Last day of our Genomic Epidemiology #caddeworshop19 covering public health, genomics, entomology, evolution & epidemiology. 37 participants, 37 dengue genomes (+mosquitoes!) w/ Oxford Nanopore in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Thank you participants, lecturers & funders for the wonderful week!

Paper out! Nice way to end a year and start a new one ! Huge thanks Luiz Alcantara and everyone! tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Marta Giovanetti Luiz Alcantara Yes Marta! fantastic way to end up a great year of collaboration with a new paper! I really enjoyed traveling around Brazil with ZiBRA Project Luiz Alcantara Fiocruz in English PAHO/WHO & training 100s of scientists and clinicians in Oxford Nanopore sequencing! a cool picture from our adventures

My first ever job advert! RA position in my group within the IMIBirmingham working on exciting UK Research and Innovation project to use Oxford Nanopore for rapid prediction of antimicrobial resistance. jobs.ac.uk/job/BXZ209/res…

Updating previous post: Arenavirus infection detected in patient with hemorrhagic fever in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Jan 2020. Case confirmed by IMTSP-FM USP CADDE Project: updates & genomic report will follow shortly. Report by Ministério da Saúde 🩵 : bit.ly/2tsofzR

Phenomenal new way to do science. it makes current publication system to look prehistoric! Please get a cup of tea or coffee & take some time to go over this report of the #nCoV2019 #coronavirus outbreak. nextstrain.org/narratives/nco… Fantastic work by Richard Neher Trevor Bedford Dr Emma Hodcroft

Another fantastic piece of science by arambaut on Virological Posts "The number of genetic differences in the genomes is close to the error rate of the sequencing process." We would like to ask to authors to release the raw data at SRA so we could assemble and sort this #nCoV2019

Amazing to see the three high profile papers by colleagues in China reporting early epidemiological results, evidence for human-to-human transmission and isolation of novel coronavirus. Waiting for next one(s) up on modelling. nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… thelancet.com/coronavirus

The 25th International Bioinformatics Workshop on Virus Evolution and Molecular Epidemiology (VEME) will take place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from Sunday July 19 - Friday July 24, 2020. Application deadline: March 23. rega.kuleuven.be/cev/veme-works…
