Now playing: ӳý Paper Vids

First video in new series explores evolution and infectious disease

In the coming months, a new video series on the ӳý’s popular  will introduce viewers to published research – from the scientist’s perspective. In each installment of the “ӳý Paper Vids” series, institute researchers will describe the exciting scientific discoveries that have made their way from the ӳý to the pages of respected scientific journals.

In the series pilot, ӳý researcher Elinor Karlsson explains how the technological revolution in genomics is helping researchers understand the “biological ‘arms race’ between microbial pathogens and humans.”

Karlsson is a postdoctoral fellow in the lab of , a senior associate member of the ӳý and an associate professor at the Center for Systems Biology at Harvard University. Karlsson and Sabeti, along with co-author Dominic Kwiatkowski of the Wellcome Trust Sanger Centre for Human Genetics, recently wrote the paper, “,” for Nature Reviews Genetics.
