Transdisciplinary training to address challenges in genomic epidemiology of inf...
Hong, Samuel L.; Stockman, Marie; Nova Blanco, Jorge Ricardo; Van Cleemput, Casper; Ahouidi, Ambroise; Armién, Blas; Bento, Ana; Bollen, NenaDuring the COVID-19 pandemic, the emergence and detection of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern highlighted the pivotal role of genomic epidemiology in public health decision and policy making. The pandemic also revealed a need for genomic epidemiologists to effectively engage with a broader audience, including policymakers and the public. To address this need, we introduced a new transdisciplinary training worksho...
Reemergence of yellow fever virus in forest and periurban settings in Brazil
Andrade, Valnete das Graças Dantas; Adelino, Talita Émile Ribeiro; Fonseca, Vagner; Moreno, Keldenn Melo Farias; Tomé, Luiz Marcelo RibeiroBackground: Yellow fever virus remains a major public health threat in Brazil, where recent resurgence risks affecting both forest and periurban populations. Understanding viral movement across ecological settings is critical to support early detection and prevent outbreaks. Methods: We performed genomic surveillance in two Brazilian states, a northern Amazon region and a southeastern region, between 2023 and 2...

Cella, Eleonora; Fonseca, Vagner; Branda, Francesco; Tosta, Stephane; Moreno, Keldenn; Schuab, Gabriel; Ali, Sobur; Slavov, Svetoslav NanevBackground: Italy was significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, experiencing multiple waves of infection following the sequential emergence of new variants. Understanding the transmission patterns and evolution of SARS-CoV-2 is vital for future preparedness. Methods: We conducted an analysis of viral genome sequences, integrating epidemiological and phylodynamic approaches, to characterize how SARS-CoV-2...

Schuab, Gabriel; Tosta, Stephane; Moreno, Keldenn; Fonseca, Vagner; Santos, Luciane Amorim; Slavov, Svetoslav Nanev; Kashima, Simone; Ciccozzi, MassimoBackground: This study focuses on urban arboviruses, specifically dengue (DENV), chikungunya (CHIKV), and Zika (ZIKV), which pose a significant public health challenge in Rio de Janeiro state, Southeast Brazil. In our research, we highlight critical findings on the transmission dynamics of these arboviruses in Rio de Janeiro, identifying distinct patterns of disease spread. Methods: By combining genomic data wi...
