A (revised and updated) shotgun metagenome workshop at UC Santa Cruz
We just finished teaching a second version of our two-day shotgun metagenome analysis workshop, this time at UC Santa Cruz (the first one was in October 2016, at Scripps Institute of Oceanography). Harriet Alexander led the workshop and Phillip Brooks and I co-taught; Luiz Irber, Shannon Joslin, and Taylor Reiter …

A shotgun metagenome workshop at the Scripps Institute of Oceanography
We just finished teaching a two day workshop at the Scripps Institute of Oceanography down at UC San Diego. Dr. Harriet Alexander, a postdoc in my lab, and I spent two days going through cloud computing, short read quality and k-mer trimming, metagenome assembly, quantification of gene abundance, mapping of …
