Abstract

Lighter is a fast and memory-efficient tool for correcting sequencing errors in high-throughput sequencing datasets. Lighter avoids counting k -mers in the sequencing reads. Instead, it uses a pair of Bloom filters, one populated with a sample of the input k -mers and the other populate...read more

Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers

Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers caused by ebola, marburg and lassa viruses often manifest as multiple organ dysfunction and hemorrhagic shock with high mortality. Discover the latest research on Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers here.

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome

Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is a viral respiratory disease of zoonotic origin caused by the SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV). Initial symptoms are flu-like and may include fever, muscle pain, lethargy symptoms, cough, sore throat, and other nonspecific symptoms. SARS may eventually lead to shortness of breath and pneumonia; either direct viral pneumonia or secondary bacterial pneumonia. DIscover the latest research on SARS here.
