ICME12 – Verbania 2023

The 12th International Course on Microbial Ecology (ICME 12), entitled ‘CRASH COURSE ON NANOPORE SEQUENCING FOR MICROBIAL ECOLOGY’ lasted six days and was held at the CNR-IRSA headquarters in Verbania, on the shores of Lake Maggiore.

The practical structure of the course enabled the students to gain in-depth knowledge of nanopore sequencing. Thanks to the guidance of the instructors, they were able to test their previous bioinformatics skills and acquire new skills for data analysis.

A daily report was produced during the course!
