The Fauver Lab

Pathogen Genomics at the UNMC College of Public Health

Here at the Fauver Lab we are interested in all things pathogen genomics. We use Next-Generation Sequencing approaches, specifically on Oxford Nanopore and Illumina platforms, to generate high-quality genomic data from a variety of different viruses and parasites. Our goal is to use these data to understand the natural history and transmission dynamics of these important pathogens. Ultimately, we want to incorporate pathogen genomics and genomic epidemiology into routine public health practice both locally and globally. 

Feel free to get in touch if you are interested in working together!
