After the first part of our #EnvironmentalMetagenomics course, focused on short-read analysis with @oskolkov.bsky.social , we’re now moving on to long-read metagenomics with @luispedrocoelho.bsky.social exploring data from @nanoporetech.com and @pacbio.bsky.social 🧬
🚨 Last call for Environmental Metagenomics with @luispedrocoelho.bsky.social & @oskolkov.bsky.social !
Only 1 seat left for this course! 🧬
Interested in exploring the microbial world and learning practical approaches to environmental metagenomics? This is your last chance to join us!
