Genetic Clues

Project Dates:

2009 - present

Description: Scientists are quickly sequencing the genes of the swine flu virus,

officially called influenza A H1N1, from thousands of patients around the world. These

genomes offer critical insight into the extent of the outbreak and the virus's

evolutionary changes to help inform diagnosis, treatment, and prevention.

Description: presented to the United States House of Representatives Appropriations

Subcommittee on Defense

Modern bioinformatic tools for studying epidemiology and disease

Project Dates:

2011 - 2011

Description: The emergence, reemergence, and spread of infectious diseases among animals

and humans are extraordinarily complex problems. Infectious diseases are not only the

realm of public health and medicine, but also phylogenetic fields such as sequence and

geographic analysis. Using the tools produced by phylogeneticists public health officials

can determine which and how many distinct strains of pathogens are moving into their

jurisdictions, from which geographic sources and host reservoirs these pathogens

originate, whether these strains are resistant to drugs and or can infect humans, and how

to diagnose the strains based on regionally specific mutation data.

A symposium celebrating 50 years of FAPESP and the Scientific Partnership between Brazil

and the United States

Project Dates:

2011 - 2011

Description: We propose a three-day symposium to bring together leaders in important

fields of mutual interest to Brazil and the United States. These fields include bioenergy,

climate change, biodiversity and Amazon studies, plant genomics, urban and area studies,

optics and photonics, vaccines and drug discovery, stem cells, and tropical diseases. The

timing of the event, October 24-26 of 2011, is motivated by the 50-year anniversary of

Fundacao de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado de Sao Paulo (FAPESP; the scientific funding

agency of the State of Sao Paulo). Brazil is an emerging actor in science and technology

as well as financial, agricultural, and energy markets. In addition to these advances, as

a large democracy, Brazil is one the United States critical partners in the world. The

importance of the US - Brazil partnership, especially in technological realms, was

recently underscored by a meeting in Brazil in March 2011 between President Obama and

President Rousseff. Thus, a joint scientific meeting in Washington DC is fitting to

commemorate FAPESP and, moreover, to solidify the future of the US Brazil partnership.
