Title: Spatial Dynamics of the Evolution and Spread of Antibiotic-Resistant Escherichia coli in the United StatesAbstract:Antibiotics are essential for treating bacterial infections in both humans and animals. However, growing resistance to antibiotics among bacteria has become a one of the leading global public health concerns in the 21st century. The spread of antibiotic resistance is the result of complex interactions between human, animal, and microbial ecologies. To account for these...

Title: New Silurian trilobites from the Sexton Creek Formation, southeastern Missouri Abstract: Little work has been done on the Sexton Creek Formation, a fossiliferous limestone deposit located in southeastern Missouri and southwestern Illinois. Only one species of trilobite, Dalmanites croneisi Ball and Delo, 1940, has previously been reported from the unit. Recent conodont work has constrained the age of the unit to Telychian, with the lower part possibly Aeronian. Current research primarily...

Some datasets are too small for standard statistical/data analysis to accurately characterize the data. Others are extremely large and data size reduction methods may be needed. One solution is to use topological data analysis to simplify and/or visualize data. This workshop will include both tutorials and research talks on topological techniques for visualizing data.Attendees are encouraged to bring a laptop to analyze their own data or data that will be provided. We will explore datasets via a...

This is the first step in the REDCap training series. In this training, we will build a new REDCap project from scratch and cover basic features such as: • Building forms with proper field types and validation • Assigning user permissions • Project backup and overview with data dictionary, codebook, pdf, and xml • Ensuring your project works properly by testing with real world application • Making mid-study modifications safely after having started data collection in production • Creating...

This training will provide an in-depth look at TriNetX and show you how to use the tool. We will go through building a study, searching for a specific population, and finally what information you can gather from the specific cohort. We will also discuss next steps on getting data extracted for research. After this training you will have a thorough understanding of how to use TriNetX and what the process is to get data extracted for research studies. Register by clicking the virtual event link...
