Pre-registration required through ASMCUE registration process. There are still openings for this workshop.

If you are interested in incorporating bioinformatics or data science concepts into a course, or working with students on data that are immediately publishable, then this workshop is for you! This workshop focuses on collecting and analyzing environmental microbial data and metadata in the free, open source KBase platform, following a workflow that results in a publishable (meta)genomic dataset for an ASM Microbiology Resource Announcement.  This workshop will provide examples of how educators use National Microbiome Data Collaborative (NMDC) and KBase resources with their students, in a variety of courses ranging from CUREs to independent research. Together, we will go through steps to analyze a genomic dataset and identify the importance of collecting and processing good sample metadata along the way. Participants will be introduced to resources for collecting environmental sample metadata through MICROnet (NSF #2418285) and KBase Educators Program, which provide teaching materials and template workflows to analyze raw sequence data and prepare students for their first data publication. Everyone will have access to these tools and resources after the workshop to use with their students and adapt for future use!
