The paper functionally validates the Plasmodium falciparum K13 C580Y mutation in Ethiopian isolates, showing it confers artemisinin tolerance.

The paper analyzes the spread of Plasmodium falciparum with hrp2/3 deletions in Peru, finding that demographic changes from malaria control and potential selection pressures drove their fixation.

COATswga designs sWGA primers for efficient microbial genome recovery, showing improved amplification efficiency and coverage in low-parasitemia samples.

This paper develops a scalable long-read sequencing method for HPV16 genome analysis, showing high accuracy and capturing full genetic diversity across multiple lineages.

The paper develops a targeted sequencing panel for Plasmodium falciparum that approximates whole genome sequencing for population genetics analyses.

This study demonstrates that Nanopore sequencing provides accurate SNV calls and detects structural variants in malaria parasite genomes, comparable to Illumina sequencing, and enables real-time, field-deployable whole genome sequencing.
