    Rapid, Reference-Free human genotype imputation with denoising autoencoders

    Raquel Dias, Doug Evans ... Ali Torkamani
    A new autoencoder-based genotype imputation method shows superior accuracy across human genomes of diverse ancestry and across the allele-frequency spectrum, while delivering significantly faster inference run times relative to standard imputation tools.

    Regional importation and asymmetric within-country spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern in the Netherlands

    Alvin X Han, Eva Kozanli ... Chantal Reusken
    Flight restrictions targeted at countries where SARS-CoV-2 variant-of-concern first emerged have limited effectiveness in deterring their introduction into the Netherlands due to the strength of regional travel importation risks in Europe.

    Genomic epidemiology of the first two waves of SARS-CoV-2 in Canada

    Angela McLaughlin, Vincent Montoya ... Jeffrey B Joy
    Canadian COVID-19 travel restrictions imposed in March 2020 greatly reduced SARS-CoV-2 importations, but were insufficient to prevent new sublineages of similar transmissibility from being introduced and replacing early sublineages.

    Mapping imported malaria in Bangladesh using parasite genetic and human mobility data

    Hsiao-Han Chang, Amy Wesolowski ... Caroline Buckee
    Human mobility drives malaria importation within countries and threatens elimination interventions, but can be measured using new approaches that combine parasite genetics, mobile phone data, travel surveys and models.

    Improved clinical data imputation via classical and quantum determinantal point processes

    Skander Kazdaghli, Iordanis Kerenidis ... Philip Teare
    A new data imputation method that can be implemented quantumly allows for better and more reliable classifications.

    Inference and control of the nosocomial transmission of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

    Sen Pei, Flaviano Morone ... Jeffrey L Shaman
    The asymptomatic colonization and importation of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in hospital settings can be inferred from observed cases using combined model-inference methods and used to inform improved interventions.

    Transmission networks of SARS-CoV-2 in Coastal Kenya during the first two waves: A retrospective genomic study

    Charles N Agoti, Lynette Isabella Ochola-Oyier ... George Githinji
    Genomic analysis of initial SARS-CoV-2 waves in Kenya revealed Mombasa City as a key gateway for variants entering Coastal Kenya with onward inter-county transmission highlighting significance of surveillance in major cities for early warning of lineages entering local populations.

    Using parasite genetic and human mobility data to infer local and cross-border malaria connectivity in Southern Africa

    Sofonias Tessema, Amy Wesolowski ... Bryan Greenhouse
    Combining parasite genetic and human mobility data can provide detailed information on local and cross-border connectivity, allowing programs to strengthen local and regional coordination for successful elimination of malaria.

    Genetic epidemiology of dengue viruses in phase III trials of the CYD tetravalent dengue vaccine and implications for efficacy

    Maia A Rabaa, Yves Girerd-Chambaz ... Cameron P Simmons
    In large vaccine trials conducted in dengue-endemic Asia and Latin America, the CYD-TDV tetravalent dengue vaccine shows limited variation in intra-serotype efficacy in the target population for vaccination (>9 years).

    A method for low-coverage single-gamete sequence analysis demonstrates adherence to Mendel’s first law across a large sample of human sperm

    Sara A Carioscia, Kathryn J Weaver ... Rajiv C McCoy
    A computational method and genome-wide scan of low-coverage single-cell sequencing data from a large sample of human sperm suggests balanced transmission of alleles to the gamete pool.
