Our September 2026 newsletter is out!
Pathogen genomics is moving faster than ever, and so are we. Our newest edition brings together the events, stories, and science shaping how laboratories around the world turn raw sequencing data into actionable insights.

Here's what's inside:
- Thank you, ESCV 2026 in Porto: Great conversations, new connections, familiar faces! A recurring theme was that climate change is pushing viruses like West Nile and Dengue northward into Europe, making faster, more accessible sequencing-based analyses more urgent than ever. A great moment was CEO Wim Dumon in conversation with keynote speaker Prof. Tulio de Oliveira, a global reference in genomic surveillance.
- Next stop: EMMD in Noordwijk: Visit Booth #8 on November 4-6 to explore how clinical microbiologists, pathologists, and lab directors are scaling pathogen detection without deep bioinformatics expertise.
- University of Nottingham: Assistant Professor Patrick McClure shares how his team accelerates the tracking of respiratory, enteric, and emerging infections using our drag-and-drop web interface alongside traditional pipelines.
- INRAE in France: Dr. Cécile Desbiez traces the Mediterranean invasion of the tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus, transforming a laborious cloning-based workflow into a rapid, browser-native surveillance tool for circular DNA plant viruses.
Whether you work in clinical virology, plant pathology, or public health surveillance, we'd love to show you what's possible when powerful bioinformatics becomes accessible to every lab.
