Analyzing Microbial Communities through Nanopore Sequencing
Abstract
Third-generation sequencing using Oxford Nanopore Sequencing technologies is becoming more common. It is now being used to learn about microbial communities and their contributions to the health of ecosystems. This activity explores data visualization connecting concepts of alpha and beta diversity to learn about trends in samples.
