Gerlovina et al. present Dcifer, a method for calculating genetic distance between polyclonal infections that explicitly accounts for population allele frequencies and complexity of infection, and provides reliable inference. #GENETICS | bit.ly/3V76PQ6

Details and summary of the paper in this thread x.com/innager01/status/15161…

Our Dcifer preprint is out! Dcifer (Distance for complex infections: fast estimation of relatedness) is a method to define and calculate genetic distance between polyclonal infections. Don’t give up on polyclonal infections, Dcifer them! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Update on Dcifer (genetic distance between polyclonal infections): the package is on CRAN now and can be installed with install.packages("dcifer"). For the latest development version and demo, check out EPPIcenter.github.io/dcifer/

On an almost unrelated note: check out a very useful mixed radix incrementing algorithm that has solved all of Dicfer’s combinatorial problems - and can solve so much more! github.com/innager/mirsa

Hi! @EPPIcenter_UCSF and SCOPE teams are starting to enroll a longitudinal study to understand the immune response to #COVIDー19. If you have tested positive, and would be OK with blood & saliva testing, please email LIINC@ucsf.edu with your name & number!
