DESCRIPTION:This course will give a comprehensive introduction to the resea
 rch field of metagenomics. It will cover the basic concepts of microbiome 
 analysis of shotgun metagenomic data using state of the art bioinformatics
  (amplicon sequencing will not be covered). The analysis methods that are 
 being introduced are generic for all types of microbiomes\, but we will be
  using data from the human microbiome as showcases. The course will start 
 with the main preprocessing steps of raw sequence data\, before various do
 wnstream analysis will be covered separately. These include taxonomic anal
 ysis\, assembly\, binning\, and finally functional analysis with focus on 
 antibiotic resistance genes. The theoretical part for each topic will be i
 ntroduced via lectures\, followed by practical hands-on exercises.
