Huisman J, Bernhard A, Igler C
Trends Microbiol . 2025 Feb; PMID: 39979200
Mobile genetic elements (MGEs), like temperate bacteriophages and conjugative plasmids, are major vectors of virulence and antibiotic resistance in bacterial populations. For reproductive success, MGEs must balance horizontal and vertical...

Nadeau S, Devaux A, Bagutti C, Alt M, Ilg Hampe E, Kraus M, et al.
Swiss Med Wkly . 2024 Apr; 154:3503. PMID: 38579316
Introduction: Influenza infections are challenging to monitor at the population level due to many mild and asymptomatic cases and similar symptoms to other common circulating respiratory diseases, including COVID-19. Methods...

Dionisi S, Huisman J
Evolution . 2023 Dec; 78(3):593-594. PMID: 38126968
How does genetic background influence a population's evolutionary response to an environmental change? Which traits are selected for and how quickly does the population adapt? Filipow et al. (2024) address...

Brockhaus E, Wolffram D, Stadler T, Osthege M, Mitra T, Littek J, et al.
PLoS Comput Biol . 2023 Nov; 19(11):e1011653. PMID: 38011276
The effective reproductive number Rt has taken a central role in the scientific, political, and public discussion during the COVID-19 pandemic, with numerous real-time estimates of this quantity routinely published....

Scire J, Huisman J, Grosu A, Angst D, Lison A, Li J, et al.
BMC Bioinformatics . 2023 Aug; 24(1):310. PMID: 37568078
Background: Accurate estimation of the effective reproductive number ([Formula: see text]) of epidemic outbreaks is of central relevance to public health policy and decision making. We present estimateR, an R...

Pasin C, Consiglio C, Huisman J, de Lange A, Peckham H, Vallejo-Yague E, et al.
R Soc Open Sci . 2023 Jul; 10(7):221628. PMID: 37416827
Although sex and gender are recognized as major determinants of health and immunity, their role is rarely considered in clinical practice and public health. We identified six bottlenecks preventing the...

Kosterlitz O, Huisman J
Plasmid . 2023 Apr; 126:102685. PMID: 37121291
Conjugation is a central characteristic of plasmid biology and an important mechanism of horizontal gene transfer in bacteria. However, there is little consensus on how to accurately estimate and report...

Huisman J, Vaughan T, Egli A, Tschudin-Sutter S, Stadler T, Bonhoeffer S
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci . 2022 Aug; 377(1861):20210245. PMID: 35989605
The spread of antibiotic resistance genes on plasmids is a threat to human and animal health. Phylogenies of bacteria and their plasmids contain clues regarding the frequency of plasmid transfer...

Huisman J, Scire J, Angst D, Li J, Neher R, Maathuis M, et al.
Elife . 2022 Aug; 11. PMID: 35938911
The effective reproductive number is a key indicator of the growth of an epidemic. Since the start of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, many methods and online dashboards have sprung up to...
