Dear all, registrations are now open for the Physalia online course on Environmental Metagenomics, taking place from 13–17 October (9 am - 1 pm Berlin time).

Course website: https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/environmental-metagenomics/

This hands-on training is designed for researchers interested in exploring microbial communities using state-of-the-art metagenomic approaches. The course will cover both read-based and assembly-based methods, with a focus on metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) and the integration of short- and long-read sequencing data (Illumina and Nanopore).

By completing this course, you will:

• Understand the basics of metagenomic sequencing and bioinformatic approaches for the analysis of metagenomic data
• Be able to plan and execute a metagenomic sequencing project
• Have an up-to-date knowledge on the bioinformatic tools and best practices for the analysis of metagenomes
• Be able to choose the right tools and approaches to answer your specific research question
• Have confidence to learn new methods needed to answer your research question
