CEMinar: My V.T. Phan, Harnessing the power of genomics to track virus transmission and evolution

My V. T. Phan is an assistant professor in genomic epidemiology and bioinformatics of viruses. She uses next-generation sequencing and bioinformatics tools to focus on viral metagenomics, virus discovery and viral genomics for transmission and evolution. Phan was involved in large-scale genomic surveillance (VIZIONS, Wellcome Trust Strategic Award) to investigate viral zoonoses in Vietnam. She participated in real-time sequencing of the Ebola virus in Sierra Leone and the SARS-CoV-2 virus in Uganda, South Sudan and Burundi — work that has informed public health measures for contact tracing and quarantine.
