Bioinformatics Analysis of Metabarcoding: exploring microbial diversity using sequencing data

This short bioinformatic analysis of metabarcoding data workshop is designed to provide participants with the essential skills necessary to process, analyze and interpret sequencing data generated through the metabarcoding technique. Participants will explore the key concepts of metabarcoding and learn about the bioinformatics tools and workflows necessary to understand microbial diversity in environmental samples. Likewise, functional metagenomics and potential applications of metabarcoding will be presented. Prerequisites: Basic understanding of molecular biology and bioinformatics.
