“…Here, I will review data from work conducted in rural Gambia, West Africa. Using demographic data dating back to the 1940s, the follow-up of randomized controlled trials of nutritional supplementation in pregnancy and the ‘experiment of nature’ that seasonality in this region provides, we have investigated the DOHaD hypothesis in a population with high rates of maternal and infant under-nutrition, a high burden from infectious disease, and an emerging risk of NCDs.…”

“…Using whole genome sequence analysis of 164 invasive Salmonella isolates obtained through population-based surveillance between 2008 and 2016, we conducted genomic analysis of the serovars causing invasive Salmonella diseases in rural Gambia. The incidence of iNTS varied over time. The proportion of atypical serovars causing disease increased over time from 40 to 65 % compared to the typical serovars Enteritidis and Typhimurium that decreased from 30 to 12 %. …”
