The use of within-host pathogen genomic sequence data can be used to improve phylogenetic and transmission estimates.

In a new study, researchers assessed the impact of mutagenesis on the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) genome and the effects of mutations in the neutral regions and ...

The COVID-19 phylogenetic tree, called UShER, was created by UCSC researchers and is the primary tool used by health officials worldwide to track the spread of variants in their community.
