SUMMARY:IDE Seminar Series – Dr QinQin Yu
DESCRIPTION:QinQin is a researcher in the Section of Viral Genomics at Stat
 ens Serum Institut in Denmark\, where she develops methods for viral genom
 ic surveillance and uses linked genomic and registry data to study viral t
 ransmission and evolution. A physicist by training\, she holds a PhD in bi
 ophysics from UC Berkeley and was a postdoctoral researcher at the Harvard
  T. H. Chan School of Public Health.\nAbstract: Genomics tools can improve
  our understanding of pathogen transmission and evolution. However\, large
  dataset sizes and sampling biases can be a challenge for conventional met
 hods. In this talk\, I will discuss potential biases in the subset of the 
 population captured by wastewater surveillance\, share a new method for es
 timating pathogen effective population size using genomics data that accou
 nts for sampling bias and has the potential to be higher throughput\, and 
 introduce ongoing work leveraging linked genomics and population registry 
 data from Denmark to characterize SARS-CoV-2 transmission dynamics in day 
 care settings.
