Welcome to Pathema

Pathema is the web resource for JCVI's NIAID-funded Bioinformatics Resource Center, one of eight such centers designed to support bio-defense and infectious disease research. The overarching goal of Pathema is to accelerate scientific progress towards understanding, detection, diagnosis and treatment of diseases caused by six clades of Category A-C pathogens (shown to the right) involved in new and re-emerging infectious diseases. Pathema provides comprehensive curated datasets for the targeted pathogen clades, along with advanced bioinformatics capabilities geared specifically towards biodefense requirements, and the identification of potential targets for vaccine development, therapeutics and diagnostics.
Six Target Pathogens

Bacillus anthracis
Clostridium botulinum
Burkholderia mallei
Burkholderia pseudomallei
Clostridium perfringens
Entamoeba histolytica
