GAMBIT (Genomic Approximation Method for Bacterial Identification and Tracking) is a tool for rapid taxonomic identification of microbial pathogens. It uses an extremely efficient genomic distance metric along with a curated database of approximately 50,000 reference genomes (derived from NCBI RefSeq) to identify unknown bacterial genomes within seconds.
