Esitietovaatimukset
This is a graduate course meant for PhD students & postdocs, also senior scientists and advanced MSc students. Intermediate knowledge of environmental microbiology/microbial ecology is required, especially nucleic-acid based methods. This course is especially suitable for those more familiar with the lab than the command line programs, as no previous coding experience is required. Basic understanding about the generation of NGS data (for example use of barcodes) is required, but can be accomplished by specified preliminary reading.
If we receive more applications than there are seats, participants will be selected based on a max. 1-page motivation letter where affiliation, background, current and future research plans are briefly stated, with special focus on why you need this course right now.
