About

In many fields of biology, researchers are beginning to realize the influence and impact of microbiota on individuals and systems. The skills and concepts introduced in this genomics workshop are relevant to a wide variety of microbial community analysis applications: ecological, human health associated, model organism associated, etc. Led by a team of experts from The Jackson Laboratory, the following topics will be explored:

• Microbial community analysis theory, study design and methodologies
• 16S rRNA sequencing analysis and interpretation
• Shotgun metagenomics analysis and interpretation
• De novo genome assembly
• Power calculations
• Advanced topics in microbial community analysis

All researchers interested in gaining these skills are invited to join the workshop.
