In this project led by James Munday, we quantified the post-sampling degradation of viral RNA in wastewater. Taking into account this degradation is core towards unbiased quantification of epidemiological dynamics based on wastewater data.

I first read the famous 1925 Yule paper at its 80th birthday - during my Master thesis work, and it shaped my research profoundly. It was a pleasure and honour to lead this special 100 anniversary issue celebrating Yule's legacy and phylogenetic models with @noahrosenberg.bsky.social and Mike Steel!
