Projects & Data
Zika Functional Evolution
Experimental studies testing Zika virus evolution.
West Nile Genomics
West Nile virus sequences from California (and beyond).
Zika Epidemiology
We’re compiling Zika case numbers from endemic countries. Our data is based on bar graphs reported and compiled by PAHO.
Zika Genomics
Sequence data from the Zika virus outbreak in Florida and beyond – mostly local cases from humans and mosquitoes, but also travel-associated cases.
HLA Typing from Ebola and Lassa Patients
HLA genotype calls from Ebola and Lassa patients admitted in Sierra Leone.
Zika Phylogeography
Phylogeographical analysis of Zika virus spread.
Dengue Florida Genomics
Full-length dengue virus genomes from the 2013 outbreak in Martin County, Florida.

Summary: Using local and travel-associated case reporting from American and European public health systems, we identified an unreported Zika outbreak in Cuba during 2017. Virus sequencing from travelers revealed that the Zika outbreak in Cuba was sparked by multiple introductions of the virus from elsewhere in the Caribbean and Central America during 2016 that persisted into 2017. The recent Zika virus…
Data here. Permanent Andersen Lab project link is here. Most epidemiological investigations of Zika virus during the current epidemic in the Americas requires temporal human case data. The only place to gather this information is is from the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), an arm of the World Health Organization. They present Zika virus case numbers in two ways: spreadsheets of…
Data here. Protocol here. Three pools of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes collected in Miami Beach on August 22nd and 23rd, 2016, were found to be infected with Zika virus. Through our collaborators, Scott Michael and Sharon Isern from Florida Gulf Coast University, we recently received samples of these mosquitoes for sequencing using our amplicon-based protocol for MiSeq.
