Real-time Whole Genome Sequencing Surveillance for Healthcare Outbreak Detection and Investigation
Offered By: Labroots via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the cutting-edge application of whole genome sequencing (WGS) surveillance in healthcare settings for early outbreak detection and investigation. Learn from Dr. Alexander Sundermann, an expert in genomic epidemiology, as he discusses the limitations of traditional infection prevention methods and introduces WGS surveillance as a proactive approach. Discover how this innovative technique can identify transmission patterns earlier, enabling faster interventions to prevent pathogen spread. Gain insights into the background and emergence of WGS surveillance, infection prevention considerations for healthcare facilities, recent cost-benefit analyses, and potential implementation barriers. This one-hour webinar offers valuable knowledge for healthcare professionals, infection preventionists, and researchers interested in advancing outbreak detection and control strategies.
