POWER GRID INFRASTRUCTURAL RESILIENCE AGAINST EXTREME EVENTS

Power Grid Infrastructural Resilience against Extreme Events

Extreme weather events are one of the main causes of large-scale power outages in distribution systems.The changing climate has led to an increase in the frequency and severity of these events, which, if not mitigated, are expected to lead to more instances of widespread outages and the severe societal and economic damages that ensue.Protecting the

Implementation of a high-throughput whole genome sequencing approach with the goal of maximizing efficiency and cost effectiveness to improve public health

ABSTRACTThis manuscript describes the development of a streamlined, cost-effective laboratory workflow to meet the demands of increased whole genome sequence (WGS) capacity while achieving mandated quality metrics.From 2020 to 2021, the Wadsworth Center Bacteriology Laboratory (WCBL) used a streamlined workflow to sequence 5,743 genomes that contri
