TraAct-DD - Track and Act with Data Donation #getout #stayout
Luxembourg is entering a gradual deconfinement phase. For this to be successful, it is critical that the country protect vulnerable people and build the trust of the population in going back to work, to school safely. It is also vital to identify asymptomatic COVID-positive patients and to wisely direct the (scarce) tests. If Luxembourg can manage this, epidemiological models indicate that a gradual release of the population may stem the pandemic and enable return to normal (#getout, #stayout). The ongoing debate at the government level indicates hesitation between blue-tooth tracing, ma...
A unified web-based platform for viral phylogeny, proteomics and genomics research in real-time
We propose the development of an integrated web-based data exploration tool for genomics, proteomics, phylogeny, evolutionary and geographical data on SARS-CoV-2 samples from Luxembourg supporting researchers and physicians to gauge the potential impact of viral evolution on virulence and transmission dynamics but also the efficacy of molecular detection methods. Integrating different data sources and visualisation modes through a graphical web-interface will offer a unique perspective on the pathogen and serve as tools to assess potential imminent risks.
DICO-Lux: DIgital Covid-19 Observatory In LUXembourg: An Open Tool For SARS-COV-2 Crisis Manageme...
Monitoring online activities for public health purposes has been investigated since the first days of the digital epidemiology field early 2010s, with the objective of capturing health-related trends and model disease outbreaks. Most famous examples of internet surveillance were developed for the flu, influenza AH1N1, the Zika virus or Ebola. We now have the opportunity to leverage both the digital data available online and the appropriate Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Text Mining methods to fight the Covid-19 pandemic. The main objective of the DICO-LUX project is to rapidly d...
