Metagenomics

Metagenomics is a branch that processes large quantities of biological data, extracted directly from an environment. In order to derive useful information from this great volume of data, it is necessary to make use of informatics support, which, in turn, implies to a need to know how to use various tools and programming languages, and the need to develop tools to simplify the data analysis.

A Practical Workshop will be held during 7-11 May 2018, in Oeiras, hosted by the Portuguese ELIXIR Node in cooperation with the nodes involved in ELIXIR-EXCELERATE Workpackage 6 “Marine Metagenomics”.
