Hvad bilder Mette Frederiksen og socialdemokraterne sig egentlig ind, når de igen og igen kommer med moraliserende kommentarer om, at danskerne skal tage sig sammen, og arbejde mere - hvis der skal være råd til velfærd i fremtiden. For det første: Danskerne knokler. Vi har

Can viruses🦠 from the past threaten the future? 🧊#EUfunded project @EuropeVeo's scientists conducted an expedition in Greenland to assess if permafrost could release dangerous pathogens. Read about it in @ScienceMagazine 👇 https://t.co/0H3auQxYHx

VEO's goal is to assess the risk that, as the Arctic warms and the permafrost thaws, long-frozen soil could release dangerous pathogens. https://t.co/HIySPXrPJX

Interested in our work? In the @EuropeVeo consortium we study pathways of disease emergence. One of the case studies focusses on Greenland, a rapidly changing environment for which little is known. We fitted an expedition to collect baseline information. 1/..

this movie shows how an expedition like this works. Kudo's to the team. With data like this we hope to eventually be able to better predict diseases https://t.co/WYk627iGJg

Thanks Marion for highlighting our piece on Science on why the world need to start acting now to stop epidemics and pandemics that are being amplified by climate change.

I very much appreciate @siliconrepublic giving me the opportunity to talk about the Pathogens Portal at @emblebi @ENASequence and how it’s poised to be at the centre of the open biodata sharing, preparing for the next pandemic.

Dr Colman O’Cathail discusses the new Pathogens portal and the value of bioinformatics for open, collaborative research.

@dmaccannell @SolidEvidence @dfocosi @GenSpectrum @CorneliusRoemer @siamosolocani @PeacockFlu @GISAID @NCBI @pvanheus to take out one source of variation, in our Eu funded consortium @EuropeVeo we developed workflows to process all incoming raw sequence reads, leading to a mutation database for research

I am going to #ISMBECCB2023 and will be presenting this paper on Monday, July 24th, at 14:50! Come by if you want to hear more about large-scale #metagenomic analyses of #antimicrobialresistance #AMR! 🧬🤓
Thrilled to share that the second paper of my PhD has now been published in @PLOSBiology on the large collection of 214K metagenomes that can be used to characterize #AntimicrobialResistance and the #microbiome 📣 https://t.co/B6TnXvNUnD

Where do you search for pathogen data? @emblebi’s new Pathogen Portal contains molecular data for over 200,000 pathogen species and strains. An important resource for pandemic preparedness, healthcare, and food security. https://t.co/h8CFn5fyWm

Great work from an ongoing collaboration across many groups and projects: @emblebi, @EuropeVeo, @BYCOVID_eu, @ReCoDID2, @EoscLife, #ELIXIRCONVERGE, @ELIXIREurope.
Delighted we have launched the new Pathogens Portal #pathogensportal, extending beyond COVID-19 to broader disease and pathogens - bringing together data of relevance to infection biology for research and preparedness.
