#StJude & #BroadInstitute #scientists are undertaking the first global & comprehensive examination of the #genomic, #genetic & molecular basis of #antifungalresistance in the emerging multi-drug resistant fungal pathogen #CandidaAuris. Dr. David Rogers, St. Jude: “Understanding the basis of antifungal resistance is essential for developing tools to better redirect response to therapy, to aid rational drug design & development & to assist in epidemiologic tracking of the spread of resistance."

Proud to see Pierre Ankomah's work out at Open Forum Infectious Diseases! #BroadInstitute @mgh_id

We found (to our surprise) neither Delta nor Omicron took over faster in more vaccinated US states – we’d thought vaccination might select for immune-evasive Omi.

Brief thread on this paper & its origin story, which took over a year in the end to get right! (I'm new at Mastodon threads; will try making subsequent posts unlisted, as some suggested… 🤞)

Pre-Existing Population Immunity and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 Variant Establishment and Dominance Dynamics in the United States: An Ecological Study

Despite Omicron’s immune evasiveness, US states with greater measures of population immunity demonstrated similar rates of transition from Delta to Omicron vari
