Microbial Community Analysis, March 21-23, 2016

Posted by & filed under Training.

Registration is now open for our new Microbial Community Analysis workshop, which will cover amplicon community profiling, as well shotgun metagenomics/transcriptomics. With high-throughput sequencing (HTS) of entire microbial communities we are rapidly advancing our understanding of the composition and functional content of microbial communities involved in climate change, environmental pollution, human health, biotechnology, etc. Using… Read more »
