August 7th 2020 at 11:30 AM Central Time (CDT)
In this webinar you will learn about:
Comparing collection methods: Medical Tape, Strips, and swabs.
Why you should be using mock community standards and blanks.
Comparing best sequencing technologies for Amplicon & Shotgun Metagenomics.
Latest technology to 'denoise' your amplicon sequencing samples to discover which taxa are present.
Best tools for shotgun metagenomics: Kraken2, Clark, and others.
Standard metagenome analysis tools that integrated into ERGO such as Phyloseq and Vegan.
Principal Coordinates Analysis (PCoA) is essential to verify controls and expected sample groups
Richness estimates such as Shannon, Chao1, and others can enable you to discover the level diversity of your sample groups
and much more!
