On July 29th, we held the last edition of our bi-monthly community meetings. We heard from Simon Creer (Bangor University, United Kingdom) about the UK DNA Working Group; Will Goodall-Copestake (Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, United Kingdom) about the Scottish DNA hub; Sten Anslan (University of Jyväskylä, Finland) about how to navigate various metabarcoding pipelines; and Joanne Littlefair (University College London, United Kingdom) an Introduction to airborne environmental DNA for biodiversity analysis.
Here we bring you highlights from the meeting and further interesting information:
-
- Read more about the Defra DNA Centre of Excellence
- Find here the publication with an overview of the bioinformatics software for metabarcoding data analyses. Among others, Sten Anslan also introduced the handy bioinformatics package with the Graphical User Interface, where he is a part of the development team pipecraft2-manual.rtfd.io
