CALL FOR APPLICATIONS NOW CLOSED
The Course tailors to a much less-endowed area of NGS-based genomics and metagenomics as an alternative approach to conventional microbial enzymes screening. It opts to apply the functional metagenomic strategy to discover new potential genes and enzymes for some industrial applications. It will allow sharing the knowledge in metagenomics, NGS technology and sequencing data analysis.
Topics
Metagenomic bank, Functional metagenomics for enzyme discovering, Genomics and Metagenomics, Next generation sequencing, Sequence analysis and annotation.
Participants
Researchers and students involved in the fields of molecular microbiology and industrial enzymes as well as sequences determination (NGS) and analysis. Poster sessions will be also organized.
Funding
Participants are expected to cover their own travel costs. A limited number of grants, covering accommodation (twin share) and local hospitality for the duration of the workshop, are available to a selected number of nationals of ICGEB Member States.
