The Threat of Antimicrobial Resistance on the Human Microbiome
Lauren M. Brinkac,Lauren M. Brinkac,Alexander A. Voorhies,Andres Gomez,Karen E. Nelson,Karen E. Nelson +5 more
TL;DR: The ability to combat the threat of emerging resistance relies on accurate AMR detection methods and the development of therapeutics that function despite the presence of antimicrobial resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Applications of weighted association networks applied to compositional data in biology.
Josh L. Espinoza,Josh L. Espinoza,Naisha Shah,Suren Singh,Karen E. Nelson,Karen E. Nelson,Christopher L. Dupont +6 more
TL;DR: The intention of this mini-review is to introduce microbiology researchers to (semi)-unsupervised data-driven approaches for inferring latent structures that may give insight into biological phenomena or abstract mechanics of complex systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
