We study genomics and viral diseases, especially HIV and now feat. COVID-19, and spend a lot of time wondering what makes viruses cause disease. labs.pathology.wisc.edu/oconnor Madison, WI Joined June 2015

Got milk? Interested in citizen science? We are starting to look for grocery store milk and cream from certain dairy processors (can be identified from labeling on the carton) from around Wisconsin as part of our ongoing H5N1 influenza monitoring. DM @dho_lab if interested.

New work in collaboration with colleagues at UC-Davis modeling sexual transmission of #Zika virus during early pregnancy. Repeated intravaginal ZIKV challenge was followed by embryonic loss in 2 out of 3 pregnancies. doi.org/10.3389/fimmu.…

Excited to see that this review with my friends from @TheDohertyInst and @KirbyInstitute on SARS-CoV-2 assays and animal models is out! nature.com/articles/s4157…

Been a while since we posted new animal model data. In collaboration with @BCM_HGSC we are making a new high quality long-read Syrian golden hamster genome. First results are full-length blood transcripts with data here: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/661…

Our preprint on initial results of rapid turnaround, mobile RT-LAMP testing now available. Much work to do, but pretty encouraging. medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

@KATarinambraun and I have been so fortunate to be in labs that allowed us to shift gears and quickly begin to understand the current pandemic! Excited to see where this all goes! @dho_lab @tcflab

Introducing the Southwest bike trail virus that we identified in common marmosets. Congrats to Anna for getting it into Biorxiv!biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We have updated our WI #SARSCoV2 @nextstrain build to show the 369 genomes that @KATarinambraun and I have sequenced. You can now view it by all of WI, Dane County, or the greater Milwaukee area with higher resolution in the map view ➡️ go.wisc.edu/r7374f @dho_lab @tcflab

Our preliminary analysis of the #Milwaukee #SARSCoV2 / #hCoV19 outbreak is on @LabKey at go.wisc.edu/dp6k0p. The Milwaukee epidemic appears to have few introductions and is largely driven by established chains of local transmission. @KATarinambraun @dho_lab @tcfriedrich

Certain neighborhoods in #Milwaukee have been disproportionately affected by #COVID19 but lacked viral sequencing to understand their outbreak. @KATarinambraun and I were lucky enough to add 93 sequences to the global tree to begin to understand the #MKE outbreak @dho_lab @tcflab

We continue to sequence Wisconsin viruses – recent viruses are nesting with previously identified clusters, consistent with ongoing community transmission. Physical distancing remains important! @GageKMoreno @tcflab @dho_lab

Thanks to the efforts of David B., we now have a Wisconsin-centric version of the @nextstrain SARS-CoV-2 visualization with data collected by @GageKMoreno and @KATarinambraun openresearch.labkey.com/wiki/Coven/pag…

Thanks to everyone who tuned in to hear about the #SARSCoV2 / #COVID19 research happening at AVRL ! If you missed it you can watch it here: uwmadison.box.com/s/zl1warigqnrh… @dho_lab

Thanks to @LillyPad @MountSinaiNYC @KATarinambraun @GageKMoreno @tcflab @dho_lab @UNMHSC and @GISAID, we've added 153 genomes from the US (IL, WI, NY, WY)! Many NY genomes (orange, image 1) cluster with those previously sampled there. We also can now see transmission chains in WI
