DESCRIPTION:This workshop is open to all applicants. However\, CS-DCC memb
 ers receive acceptance priority and a discounted registration rate.   Micr
 obes are everywhere and the study of microbiomes has become a multidiscipl
 inary science involving microbiology\, statistics\, computer science\, and
  molecular biology to elucidate the impact of microbes in various ecosyste
 ms\, including the human body. Microbiomics\, the study of microbes withou
 t first culturing and isolating the organisms\, has become the principal a
 pproach to exploring the diversity\, function and ecology of microbial com
 munities.  This 3-day course provides an introduction to marker-gene anal
 ysis\, metagenomic and metatranscriptomic data analysis followed by hands-
 on practical tutorials for each session to demonstrate the use of relevant
  bioinformatics and statistical tools. Modules will consist of lectures co
 vering both theoretical and practical components followed by hands-on bioi
 nformatic tutorials guided by instructors and teaching assistants.
