4 organisation WP1.Improvement of the technical aspects of NGS platforms and the of technical protocols (FLI Dirk Höper, Martin Beer) Protocol optimisation: from sample to virus representative DNA library (targeted & random approaches) Platform prospection: 3rd generation or single molecule sequencing. NEW: application of technical progress to sequence additional viral genomes WP5. Data analysis, bioinformatics and modelling tools (U. of Glasgow) Construction of data analysis pipelines which distinguish NGS artefacts from underlying genetic variation to enable powerful molecular epidemiology Modelling high resolution epidemiologic/genetic data sets WP6. Dissemination of project results and findings (SLU, Sándor Belák ) WP7. Project management (CODA-CERVA, Steven Van Borm ; SLU, Sándor Belák ) 4
