Dear colleagues,

We’re excited to announce our upcoming online course on Environmental Metagenomics, taking place from 13–17 October 2025. This hands-on training is ideal for researchers working with complex microbial communities and interested in both the taxonomic and functional analysis of metagenomic data.

During this one-week course you will learn state-of-the-art bioinformatic approaches to analyse metagenomic data. We will cover both read- and assembly-based methods, focusing on the strength of each of these methods depending on the research question. We will use data from both short- (e.g. Illumina) and long-read (e.g. Nanopore) sequencing platforms, as this combination dramatically improves MAG assemblying and binning compared to short-read-only methods.


💡 What you’ll learn:

  • Cutting-edge bioinformatic tools for read- and assembly-based metagenomics

  • Strategies for MAG recovery using Illumina and Nanopore data

  • How to plan and analyze metagenomic projects from start to finish
