The Evolution and Epidemiology of Drug Resistant HIV
Dr David Bonsall
Infectious Disease Seminar Series
Monday, 19 February 2024, 1pm to 2pm
BDI/OxPop Building LG seminar rooms
In this talk, I will explore the impact of low-frequency mutations on the evolution of drug-resistant HIV, highlighting our breakthroughs with the AMPHEUS system and veSEQ pipeline for advanced genomic analyses. Our findings reveal crucial insights into the underestimated prevalence of transmitted NRTI resistance, underscoring the urgent need for enhanced surveillance in areas with high treatment failure rates.
David Bonsall is a pioneer of pathogen genomics, leads efforts to unravel the complexities of drug resistant HIV, leveraging cutting-edge technologies to inform global health strategies.
