Shigella: ask a microbiologist
April 12, 2023
The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have warned the public that declared cases of drug-resistant Shigella are on the rise. In light of this, we asked Dr Maaike van den Beld, a molecular bacteriologist at the Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment, some questions about Shigella infection and his recent publication in Microbial Genomics which reports on surveillance of Shigella in the Netherlands.

How should public health authorities use pathogen genomics in practice?
February 6, 2023
Dr Declan Bradley takes us behind the scenes of his latest research 'How public health authorities can use pathogen genomics in health protection practice: a consensus-building Delphi study conducted in the United Kingdom' published in Microbial Genomics.
From the first detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection in humans, genomics was central to defining and understanding the threat posed by this emerging infectious disease. Pathogen genomics services grew to operate at a scale that was orders of magnitude greater than before the COVID-19 pandemic. Health protection services in public health authorities are responsible for surveillance and prevention of communicable diseases. -
