The Impact of Real-Time Whole-Genome Sequencing in Controlling Healthcare-Associated SARS-CoV-2 Outbreaks (2021)
Journal Article
Francis, R. V., Billam, H., Clarke, M., Yates, C., Tsoleridis, T., Berry, L., …McClure, C. P. (2022). The Impact of Real-Time Whole-Genome Sequencing in Controlling Healthcare-Associated SARS-CoV-2 Outbreaks. Journal of Infectious Diseases, 225(1), 10-18. https://doi.org/10.1093/infdis/jiab483

Nosocomial severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections have severely affected bed capacity and patient flow. We utilized whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to identify outbreaks and focus infection control resources and interve...

Specification and epigenomic resetting of the pig germline exhibit conservation with the human lineage (2021)
Journal Article
Zhu, Q., Sang, F., Withey, S., Tang, W., Dietmann, S., Klisch, D., …Alberio, R. (2021). Specification and epigenomic resetting of the pig germline exhibit conservation with the human lineage. Cell Reports, 34(6), Article 108735. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.celrep.2021.108735

Investigations of the human germline and programming are challenging because of limited access to embryonic material. However, the pig as a model may provide insights into transcriptional network and epigenetic reprogramming applicable to both specie...
