Hands-on bioinformatics for microbial meta-omics

This course is designed to introduce beginners to the process of analyzing meta-omic data. The first week will be focused on meta-genomics and the second week will introduce meta-transcriptomics and an example of meta-proteomics. Students will work in groups of two and will be assigned a dataset that they will need to process based on the information learned from the course. Therefore, there will be a theory session and a hands-on session every day. 

Note that the course is organized in two disjunct weeks in order to allow students to work on the metagenomic analysis in between the two block sessions.

The student will present the outcome of their project the last day of the course (February 9th).  The grade will be based on the presentation.
