Microbiome - How important are the sample space and it's structure?

Another great talk from the symposium on probabilistic microbial modeling...


TLDW Highlights...and links to further reading, term definitions, concept reads and their upcoming workshop etc...

Microbiome abundance or relative abundance...that is the question?!

Really great talk by Shayamal Peddada about metrics for measuring and comparing abundance/relative abundance within and between microbiome samples.

Worth a watch!

For those TLDW (too long didn't watch)...

Blog Series: Workshop on Genomics, Cesky Krumlov; Preparation--Modern Genome Sequencing Technology

Given the workshop will be moving quite quickly the organizer(s) suggested for those of us with less background to do some reading up in certain topics which they outline and include links to on the website in a section called Preparation.

This page, with respect to the workshop on genomics, is broken down into sections. Total there are a suggested 23 readings or websites, unfortunately many (11 of 23) of the links, you have to have a subscription to view the articles beyond the abstract; which unfortunately I do not have and my institution has limited subscriptions; besides most of my preparation is being done at home where I would't have access to the institutional subscriptions anyway. I'll be going section by section with the papers linked and offer some additional suggestions for those unable to access articles due to lack of subscription.
