The study examines URT microbiome features linked to S. pneumoniae colonisation in older children in The Gambia, identifying microbial associations and environmental factors influencing colonisation.

This study analyzes the genetic diversity and antimicrobial resistance of Campylobacter jejuni isolates from Gambian children with diarrhoea and healthy controls, finding high genotypic diversity and low-level antibiotic resistance.

The paper characterizes genomic diversity and antimicrobial resistance in non-typhoidal Salmonella from The Gambia, identifying multidrug-resistant strains and their epidemiological implications.

The paper uses whole genome sequencing to trace the origin of SARS-CoV-2 strains in The Gambia, identifying European and Asian sources.

The paper reconstructs the evolutionary histories of antibiotic-resistant pneumococcal lineages PMEN3 and PMEN9, showing how interspecies recombination contributes to antibiotic resistance and serotype switching.

The paper identifies high within-lineage genomic diversity and gene content differences in Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex lineage 5 compared to H37Rv, affecting transmission analysis and suggesting the need for alternative reference genomes.

The paper analyzes genomes of Mycobacterium africanum strains to identify a new lineage and explore their evolutionary history and phylogeography.

This study characterizes the genomic diversity of Escherichia coli isolates from backyard chickens and guinea fowl in rural Gambia, identifying novel sequence types and antimicrobial resistance genes.

This study analyzes genomic diversity and antimicrobial resistance in Escherichia coli isolates from non-human primates in the Gambia, identifying novel sequence types and potential human pathogen exchange.

The paper compares the genomes of Mycobacterium africanum Lineage 5 and 6 from Ghana, finding genomic diversity and selection pressure differences suggesting distinct ecological niches.
