This study examines how pulmonary tuberculosis affects the respiratory and gut microbiomes in Ugandan adults, finding site-specific taxonomic differences but mixed results on community composition.

The paper characterizes the population structure and drug resistance of Plasmodium falciparum in Uganda and neighboring countries using whole-genome data, identifying key resistance-associated haplotypes.

PfPHAST is a streamlined amplicon sequencing panel for malaria genomic surveillance, offering better quality control and cost efficiency than MAD4HatTeR without sacrificing performance on shared targets.

This study profiles the gut microbiome of Ugandan COVID-19 patients and identifies microbial associations with disease severity using machine learning.
