Antimicrobials, such as antibiotics or antivirals are medications employed to prevent and treat infectious diseases in humans, animals, and plants. Antimicrobial Resistance occurs when bacteria, viruses, and parasites no longer respond to these medic...
OBJECTIVES: Integrating pathogen genomic surveillance with bioinformatics can enhance public health responses by identifying risk and guiding interventions. This study focusses on the two predominant Campylobacter species, which are commonly found in...
UNLABELLED: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a public health threat worldwide. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has opened unprecedented opportunities to accelerate AMR mechanism discovery and diagnostics. Here, we present an integrative approach to...
With antimicrobial resistance (AMR) rapidly evolving in pathogens, quick and accurate identification of genetic determinants of phenotypic resistance is essential for improving surveillance, stewardship, and clinical mitigation. Machine learning (ML)...

Salmonella is a foodborne pathogen that causes salmonellosis, of which retail chicken meat is a major source. However, the prevalence of Salmonella in different retail chicken supply modes and the threat posed to consumers remains unclear. The preval...
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a type of Gram-negative bacterium which can cause a range of infections in human. In recent years, an increasing number of strains of K. pneumoniae resistant to multiple antibiotics have emerged, posing a significant threat t...
Increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) represents a global healthcare threat. To decrease the spread of AMR and associated mortality, methods for rapid selection of optimal antibiotic treatment are urgently needed. Machine learning (ML) models bas...
Operons are groups of consecutive genes that transcribe together under the regulation of a common promoter. They influence protein regulation and various physiological pathways, making their accurate detection desirable. The detection of operons thro...
The majority of microbial genomes have yet to be cultured, and most proteins identified in microbial genomes or environmental sequences cannot be functionally annotated. As a result, current computational approaches to describe microbial systems rely...
