Bayesian Reconstruction of Transmission within Outbreaks using Genomic Variants

2017-11-08

Abstract excerpt

Pathogen genome sequencing can reveal details of transmission histories and is a powerful tool in the fight against infectious disease. In particular, within-host pathogen genomic variants identified through heterozygous nucleotide base calls are a potential source of information to identify linked cases and infer direction and time of transmission. However, using such data effectively to model disease transmissio...
