Data-Driven Insights into Anaerobic Microbes: A Bioinformatics Workshop 2.0

Anaerobic microbes play vital roles in diverse ecosystems, ranging from the human gut to extreme industrial bioreactors. Their unique metabolic capabilities make them key players in bioenergy production, waste treatment, and health. Yet, studying these organisms requires deep scientific understanding and advanced data processing techniques.
This bioinformatics workshop blends deep science foundations in microbial systems with deep learning-enabled analytics, helping participants explore genome and transcriptome datasets using cutting-edge bioinformatics tools. From KEGG to MG-RAST, from phylogenetic mapping to neural network applications, learners will build actionable skills for understanding and manipulating microbial systems in environmental, industrial, and biomedical domains.

This workshop aims to empower participants with the ability to analyze, interpret, and visualize large-scale bioinformatics data related to anaerobic microbes. It integrates principles of deep science and deep learning to decode microbial dynamics using real-world datasets. Participants will gain insight into microbial metabolism, gene expression, and community interactions under anaerobic conditions. The goal is to prepare attendees for advanced research and data-driven applications in microbial bioinformatics.
