Sequencing is an important tool for connecting across disciplines, organization types, geography, human/animal, and time. In this article I use the 2022-2023 Pseudomonas outbreak in artificial tears as a case study on the power of sequencing for surveillance. genomicepi.substack.com/p/the-perfec...

I live ~70 miles away and this is what it looks like from our bedroom window. It never gets old.
