Federated causal inference based on real-world observational data sources: application to a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine effectiveness assessmentAbstractIntroductionMethodsResultsConclusions
sensitive individual-level data from populations crossing jurisdictional borders, a federated approach (as opposed to a pooling data approach) can be used. Approaching causal inference by re-using routinely ...
Strain-level characterization without culture enrichment? Easing and accelerating outbreak investigation using shotgun metagenomics facilitated with nanopore adaptive sampling
a proof-of-concept, we explored the use of adaptive sampling using various databases (depletion of the food matrix i.e. potato, enrichment of a selection of foodborne pathogens, enrichment of a database of ...
