Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
This practical seminar introduces the major computational methods necessary to process, analyse and interpret shotgun metagenomic sequences in theory and practice. Main topics are metagenome assembly, binning, taxonomic characterization, and annotation. Students simulate individual metagenomes first, and test the relevant computational approaches on them. Based on this experience, real metagenomes from recent research projects are analyzed in the second part of the seminar.
