Víctor Noguerales exchange visit to Alfried P. Vogler’s Lab (NHM) in London
This visit was planned for the 22nd March - 10th April 2020, but it had to be conducted remotely due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The goal of this three-week intensive online collaboration between NHM and UCY researchers was twofold: a) To train the UCY postdoctoral researcher on the latest bioinformatic pipelines for the analyses of metabarcoding data and help him to analyse his soil metabarcoding dataset from Cyprus, b) To apply the metaMATE pipeline that has been created by the iBioGen team (https://github.com/tjcreedy/metamate) to metabarcoding data from Cyprus and use this opportunity to debug and optimise the software, before it gets officially published and distributed widely to the scientific community.
This collaborative work between NHM and UCY researchers on soil metabarcoding data from Cyprus has resulted in a manuscript which is currently in preparation.
