We are organising at CNR-IRSA of Verbania (Italy) the 12th edition of ICME12 courses daddressed to 20 PhD students and early career researchers from all over the world, interested in Nanopore sequencing data for microbial ecology – Deadline 15th of July!!
The course focuses on:
- Practical experience in sequencing using Nanopore technology (MinIon)
- Bioinformatic analysis of Nanopore sequencing data
During the course, students will generate and analyze metagenomic data from DNA samples previously extracted and tested for the training activities. The course is hand-on training with a clear practical setting, preceded by theoretical activities. It will cover different analysis approaches including linux-based command line tools and online bioinformatic portal. The participants will be divided into groups of 5 members to work on specific assignments and they will have to present the working group results for comparison and discussion. On the first days participants will have to introduce themselved with a 3 minutes presentation, including the main resaerch topic.
