Bioinformatics in bacterial molecular epidemiology and public health: databases, tools and the next-generation sequencing revolution

Abstract excerpt

Advances in typing methodologies have been the driving force in the field of molecular epidemiology of pathogens. The development of molecular methodologies, and more recently of DNA sequencing methods to complement and improve phenotypic identification methods, was accompanied by the generation of large amounts of data and the need to develop ways of storing and analysing them. Simultaneously, advances in...
