MicrobeTrace is a desktop application that renders existing data from high-risk contact networks in an easy-to-use Graphical User Interface (GUI). The network visualization can be customized according to supplemental data sources and mathematical inferences like the most probable transmission pathways. MicrobeTrace is a highly responsive, visual sequence analytics tool which can reduce the gap between data production and analytics and help you to discover, understand, and display relationships between patients (nodes). As a standalone desktop application, MicrobeTrace can be deployed on laptops to locations without any Internet access, thereby reducing both the startup cost and analysis time and effort.

For additional information, please see also the User Manual.
