Participei do #CBM33, em Aracaju-SE. Discuti sobre como a metagenômica pode cumprir um papel central na saúde pública. O sequenciamento de amplo espectro ainda não é prática comum na vigilância em saúde no Brasil. Mas deveria. (1/4) 🧬 #Metagenômica #VigilânciaGenômica

A great extra step towards a more collaborative and open science and public health environment! @pathoplexus.org now supports RSV and HMPV genomes. 🦠 🧬
📢Today Pathoplexus announces the inclusion of 2 new viral pathogens: RSV (A & B) and HMPV.

These respiratory viruses cause a serious health burden, particularly in infants & the vulnerable, & Pathoplexus aims to support sequence sharing to improve understanding & response.

Check this new system for dengue virus lineage classification: it will be a game-changer for understanding dengue virus evolution.
If you do dengue virus sequencing +/- phylogenetic analysis, check out our new system for classifying lineages.

Led by Verity Hill, this was a large collaborative effort by dengue researchers from 14 countries.

Great talk by Alexandre Caron at #WOHC2024. When it comes to implementing #OneHealth, context-specific approaches are essential. Many possible approaches (and institutions) may be necessary, depending on the ecological context of animal populations (1st column below).

It was a pleasure to be a panelist in roundtables of The Nobel Prize Dialogue, an event held at UERJ, Rio de Janeiro. 🇧🇷

Together with the 2021 Nobel laureate, Dr David MacMillan, Antonio Fidalgo and Helena Nader we discussed the benefits of Science to society.

It was a truly unique experience.
