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.

This study analyzes KIR diversity in HIV-infected children from Uganda and Botswana, finding differences in allele frequencies and associations with disease progression.

The paper identifies a concurrent chickenpox outbreak during an Mpox outbreak in Uganda by analyzing metagenomic data from Mpox-negative samples.

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

The paper creates a deep population reference panel of tandem repeat variation using whole genome sequencing and develops a method to genotype over 1.7 million TR loci, identifying novel eQTL signals and a phased haplotype panel for imputation.
