Talk recording

Neglected infectious diseases such as Zika, Chikunugnya, Dengue and Yellow Fever represent a great public health and economic burden to most tropical countries. The seminar will show how various types of data, from GPS data to gene expression at single cell level, can be integrated to study these diseases.
