PathoSPOT genomic epidemiology reveals under-the-radar nosocomial outbreaks

2020-05-14

Abstract excerpt

Whole genome sequencing (WGS) is increasingly used to map the spread of bacterial and viral pathogens in nosocomial settings. A limiting factor for more widespread adoption of WGS for hospital infection prevention practices is the availability of standardized tools for genomic epidemiology. Here we present the Pathogen Sequencing Phylogenomic Outbreak Toolkit (PathoSPOT), which automates integration of genomic and...
