Make your data count: Process, publish and reuse your metabarcoding output in SBDI

Join this seminar by the Swedish Biodiversity Data Infrastructure (SBDI) to discover tools for converting amplicon sequence reads into species occurrence data that contribute to global biodiversity knowledge. We will introduce SBDI and GBIF platforms, and demonstrate SBDI resources for metabarcoding data, including a guide for ENA submission, a pipeline for denoising reads into Amplicon Sequence Variants (ASVs), a web interface for submitting and accessing ASV data in SBDI, and an R package for processing downloaded data into ASV table format.

When: Tuesday November 5, 10-11 CET. Zoom link to join the seminar https://uu-se.zoom.us/j/64560289255

Speakers:
Anders Andersson, Science for Life Laboratory, KTH Royal Institute of Technology
Maria Prager, Science for Life Laboratory, Stockholm University / Karolinska Institutet
Jeanette Tångrot, National Bioinformatics Infrastructure Sweden (NBIS), Science for Life Laboratory, Umeå University

This seminar is part of the SciLifeLab Data Management seminar series, organized by SciLifeLab Data Centre and NBIS joint Data Management team. The series offers engaging talks on topics related to research data management practices and FAIR principles, with a focus on fostering discussions around best practices and potential improvements.

The seminar series takes place virtually via Zoom and is open to everyone affiliated with a Swedish Research institution, including researchers, staff, RDM professionals. Recordings of the events are made available on the SciLifeLab YouTube channel after the seminars.
