Dear all, we still have a few places left for our course: "Eukaryotic Metabarcoding", that will be held in Berlin (Free University of Berlin) from the 4th to the 8th of March.
Application deadline is: February 4th, 2019. Instructors: Dr. Owen S. Wangensteen (University of Tromsø, Norway; https://www.physalia-courses.org/instructors/t2/) Dr. Vasco Elbrecht (University of Guelph, Canada; https://www.physalia-courses.org/instructors/t7/) This workshop gives an overview of metabarcoding procedures with an emphasis on practical problem-solving and hands-on work using analysis pipelines on real datasets. After completing the workshop, students should be in a position to (1) understand the potential and capabilities of metabarcoding, (2) run complete analyses of metabarcoding pipelines and obtain diversity inventories and ecologically interpretable data from raw next-generation sequence data and (3) design their own metabarcoding projects, including bioinformatic data analysis and planning of laboratory work. All course materials (including copies of presentations, practical exercises, data files, and example scripts prepared by the instructing team) will be provided electronically to participants.
