EPI Spring Seminar Series: Dr. Xavier Berthet
Emerging Pathogens Institute is hosting its next EPR Spring Seminar Series on April 24, 2025, 11:00AM-Noon.
Guest speaker Dr. Xavier Berthet will present his talk “Unraveling the Language of Genomes: A Journey through Genomic Algebra”.
Abstract: Genomic algebra reduces data size, preserves sequence features, and enables phylogenetic analyses on hexagonal lattices. It simplifies mutation detection using basic mathematical operations. By enhancing efficiency and offering compact visualization tools, Genomic Algebra is a transformative framework for genomics. The approach is poised to foster local manufacturing and widespread dissemination, particularly across Africa, supporting advancements in many areas of genomics and biotechnology.
