 nThe microbiome is the ecological community of commensal\, symbiotic and p
 athogenic microorganisms found in and on all multicellular organisms from 
 plants to animals. It has been found to be crucial for immunologic\, hormo
 nal and metabolic homeostasis of its host. In this workshop\, we aim to no
 t only introduce you to the all the necessary basic methods to analyse a m
 icrobiome experiment\, like processing your raw data\, statistical testing
  and quality control. Additionally\, we want to introduce you to Qiita\, a
  microbial study management platform used to manage and compute studies wi
 th microbiome data. This framework establishes an easily accessible way fo
 r non-computational scientists to analyse their own data with the option o
 f using pre-defined workflows or building their own. Afterwards\, we will 
 explore the microbiome analysis pipeline QIIME2 to delve further into our 
 data sets and to enable you to be able to take your first steps towards yo
 ur own analysis.\n\nLearning goals:\n• To understand the principles and 
 applications of 16S amplicon sequencing for microbiome research\n• To le
 arn how to design\, perform\, and troubleshoot 16S amplicon experiments\, 
 including sample collection\, DNA extraction\, PCR amplification\, library
  preparation\, and sequencing\n• To acquire the skills and tools to proc
 ess\, analyze\, and interpret 16S amplicon data using various bioinformati
 cs platforms\n• To explore the diversity\, structure\, and function of m
 icrobial communities across different environments\, hosts\, and condition
 s using 16S amplicon data\n• To critically evaluate the quality\, validi
 ty\, and limitations of 16S amplicon data and result\n\nPrerequisites:\nNo
 ne\n\nKeywords:\n16S Amplicon\, Microbial Omics\n\nTools:\nQiita\, QIIME2
