Kurs představí hlavní metody masivně paralelního sekvenování používané při studiu mikrobiomu. Studenti se seznámí s metodami pro hodnocení zastoupení různých druhů ve společenstvu pomocí sekvencování genomu, metagenomiky a metatranskriptomiky. Důležitou součástí kursu je plánování projektu, navržení experimentu, zpracování dat a prezentace výsledků.

In this course, we are going to explore the main approaches applied for microbiome studies based on high-
throughput sequencing technologies. The students will get familiarized with methods for assessment of community
composition, genome sequencing, metagenomics and metatranscriptomics. We are going to tackle subjects from
the project planning and experimental design to the most used strategies for data treatment, data analysis,
exploration and the presentation of results.

Due to the rapid development of microbiome analysis methods and tools, recommended literature also changes rapidly. The students are thus given compulsory reading during the lectures. In this way, the lecturers can better follow the development in the field.
