The paper examines how geography, ancestry, age, and sex influence the prevalence of somatic autosomal mosaic chromosomal alterations in blood across diverse populations.

The paper investigates the genetic diversity of the SRA gene in T. b. rhodesiense isolates and APOL-1 genotypes in Malawian r-HAT patients, finding heterozygosity in SRA and severe r-HAT cases in APOL-1 G2 individuals.

This study compares gene expression profiles between early and late stage r-HAT patients in Malawi, identifying differentially expressed genes and potential diagnostic biomarkers.

This study uses metagenomic sequencing to identify a diverse range of viruses in Ugandan mosquitoes, revealing many novel species with potential human and animal pathogenicity.

The paper analyzes transcriptome profiles of T.b. rhodesiense isolates from two Malawi foci, finding focus-specific gene expression patterns linked to disease severity and population structure.

This study analyzes RNA-seq data from Ugandan children infected with Schistosoma mansoni to identify differentially expressed genes associated with infection intensity and fibrosis-related pathways.

The paper describes two new Trypanosoma brucei brucei strains with minimal in vitro passage and reports gene copy-number changes associated with culture adaptation.

The paper investigates associations between APOL1 variants and HAT risk in Ugandan populations, finding no significant associations after correction for multiple testing.

This paper investigates genetic associations with susceptibility to Human African Trypanosomiasis in Côte d’Ivoire using a candidate gene approach and finds suggestive but non-significant associations in several immune-related genes.

The paper analyzes 289 genome sequences from Nilo-Saharan and Niger-Congo populations to identify population-specific selection signatures linked to disease resistance.
