Abstract
The Pathogen Genomics group at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (WTSI) is sequencing genomes of a large number of human and animal pathogens including bacteria, protozoan parasites and parasitic helminths. I will be giving a brief overview of our main pathogen sequencing activities within WTSI , primarily focusing on our efforts in sequencing several Plasmodium species for comparative genomic studies and also on our re-sequencing activities to understand natural diversity among the field isolates of human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum.
