Congrats Zannah!

[Zannah Salter @Zannah_Du]

Here we go!! It's official!

I've been accepted by @CamVetSchool to pursue a PhD in Biological Sciences with @JulianParkhill!

And delighted to be joining the @clarehall_cam family as well!

From @DorothyYeboahM1's @DYMLab_NMIMR in @NMIMR_UG, currently @CamVetSchool with the @PathGenEvoCam group on a collaborative research project supported by @AfrResExFund and @CambridgeAfrica. I was warmly received by my host sponsors @JulianParkhill @jw132 @Triedzi on the 1st day

[Chris Ruis @Chris3Ruis]

🚨 Our new preprint is up 🚨

Welcome to the group @princeasaregh. We're looking forward to working with you over the next few months

[PathGenEvo Cam @PathGenEvoCam]

Wonderful work from @noemielefrancq @vbouchezIP @hsalje and @sylvainbrisse and many others

[Noémie Lefrancq @noemielefrancq]

Our article on Global spatial dynamics and vaccine-induced fitness changes of Bordetella #pertussis is out in @ScienceTM!

Using #phylogenetic models, we investigate #pertussis spatial #spread, and #fitness shifts in response to vaccine changes.

To help examine potential SARS-CoV-2 recombinant lineages, I've written bammix which examines potential mixtures at a set of positions in a BAM file
