DESCRIPTION:This course will demonstrate applying metabarcoding analysis to
  eDNA for assessing biodiversity.\n\nSequencing DNA barcodes from mixed so
 urces of DNA is being increasingly used to survey biodiversity\, whether a
 nalysing dietary content from faecal-derived DNA or monitoring aquatic spe
 cies from water-derived DNA. This course will give an overview of metabarc
 oding with different barcoding genes to target particular taxa. Using an e
 xample data set we will go from raw sequence data through to assigning tax
 onomy to the sequence variants and some examples of downstream community a
 nalysis.\n\nSessions will comprise presentations and self-paced computer p
 racticals guided by an online interactive book containing theory and pract
 ice code.\n\nThis virtual course will be delivered via live-streamed talks
  on Zoom with support from instructors via Zoom and Slack during the timet
 abled sessions. Computer practicals will run on a virtual training platfor
 m so attendees will not need access to a powerful computer or to install a
 ny software. We are willing to make reasonable adjustments to facilitate l
 earning where possible and will provide clear routes to enable anyone that
  requires this to discuss this with us ahead of the training.
