Biography

Dr. Ko’s research interests are the study of virus genetic diversity and its evolution using single genome sequencing. He has developed a high-throughput and high-accuracy single genome sequencing strategy by combining unique molecular identifiers and long-read sequencing technology. The method has been applied to studies of HIV dynamics under bNAb treatment and intra-individual SARS-CoV-2 evolution.
