If you have a question about this talk, please contact Mike Gunn. I’ll talk about: Direct detection of nucleic acids (DNA & RNA ) using biological nanopore sequencing techniques The challenges of translating electrical current signal information into DNA sequence How when we’ve done this we can use this to analyse important pathogens like Ebola and Zika in the field (for example, in Guinea in 2015 and Brazil in 2016) What pathogen genomes can tell us about how epidemics start and how we can control them when they do This talk is part of the Theoretical Physics Seminars series.
