Using genomics data to reconstruct transmission trees during disease outbreaks.

Revue scientifique et technique (International Office of Epizootics) - 1 Apr 2016

Hall M D, Woolhouse M E J, Rambaut A

Abstract excerpt

Genetic sequence data from pathogens present a novel means to investigate the spread of infectious disease between infected hosts or infected premises, complementing traditional contact-tracing approaches, and much recent work has gone into developing methods for this purpose. The objective is to recover the epidemic transmission tree, which identifies who infected whom. This paper reviews the various approaches...
