Title: A new strategy to infer circularity applied to four new complete frog mitogenomes
Author: Machado, Denis Jacob, Janies, Daniel, Brouwer, Cory, Grant, Taran
Date Created: 2018
Subjects--Topical: Genomics, Amphibians, Bioinformatics
Description: We applied a novel strategy to infer sequence circularity and complete assembly of four mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of the frog families Bufonidae (Melanophryniscus moreirae), Dendrobatidae (Hyloxalus subpunctatus and Phyllobates terribili...

Title: A novel machine learning framework for comparison of viral COVID-19–related Sina Weibo and Twitter posts : workflow development and content analysis
Author: Chen, Shi, Zhou, Lina, Song, Yunya, Xu, Qian, Wang, Ping, Wang, Kanlun, Ge, Yaorong, Janies, Daniel
Date Created: 2021
Subjects--Topical: COVID-19 (Disease), Twitter (Firm), Social media, Machine learning
Description: Background: Social media plays a critical role in health communications, especially during global health emergencies such as the current COVID-19 pandemic. However, there is a lack of a universal analytical framework to extract, quantify, and comp...

Title: Comparative phylogenetic studies on Schistosoma japonicum and its snail intermediate host Oncomelania hupensis : origins, dispersal and coevolution
Author: Attwood, Stephen W., Ibaraki, Motomu, Saitoh, Yasuhide, Janies, Daniel
Subjects--Topical: Parasites, Coevolution, Public health
Description: Schistosoma japonicum causes major public health problems in China and the Philippines; this parasite, which is transmitted by freshwater snails of the species Oncomelania hupen- sis, causes the disease intestinal schistosomiasis in humans and cat...

Title: FLAVi : an enhanced annotator for viral genomes of Flaviviridae
Author: Machado, Denis Jacob, Schneider, Adriano, Guirales, Sayal, Janies, Daniel
Subjects--Topical: Viruses, Phylogeny
Description: Responding to the ongoing and severe public health threat of viruses of the family Flaviviridae, including dengue, hepatitis C, West Nile, yellow fever, and Zika, demands a greater understanding of how these viruses emerge and spread. Updated phyl...

Title: Fundamental evolution of all Orthocoronavirinae including three deadly lineages descendent from Chiroptera-hosted coronaviruses : SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2
Author: Machado, Denis Jacob, Scott, Rachel, Guirales, Sayal, Janies, Daniel
Subjects--Topical: Coronaviruses, SARS (Disease), MERS (Disease), COVID-19 (Disease)
Description: The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) emerged in humans in 2002. Despite reports showing Chiroptera as the original animal reservoir of SARS-CoV, many argue that Carnivora-hosted viruses are the most likely origin. The emerg...

Title: Fundamentals of genomic epidemiology, lessons learned from the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, and new directions
Author: Machado, Denis Jacob, White, Richard Allen, III, Kofsky, Janice, Janies, Daniel
Subjects--Topical: COVID-19 (Disease), Epidemiology
Description: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic was one of the significant causes of death worldwide in 2020. The disease is caused by severe acute coronavirus syndrome (SARS) coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), an RNA virus of the subfamily Orthocoronav...

Title: Modeling Plasmodium falciparum diagnostic test sensitivity using machine learning with histidine-rich protein 2 variants
