Metagenomics Course
You will build a thorough understanding of metagenomic methods, covering sample collection, sequencing technologies, and bioinformatics analysis. The course walks you through quality control, read processing, taxonomic classification, and metagenomic assembly using industry-standard tools. You will learn to annotate genes, reconstruct metabolic pathways, and detect antibiotic resistance determinants. Supplementary modules introduce metatranscriptomics, multi-omics integration, clinical microbiome applications, and advanced statistical methods. By the end, you will be equipped to design, execute, and communicate rigorous metagenomic studies across environmental, clinical, and industrial research contexts.

What our students say
Your classes are perfect. I purchased the one-year package and finally have the opportunity to follow various topics of my interest without needing to switch platforms... I thank you for everything you do, I've already recommended you to other people...

I like how the lessons are straight to the point and how I can switch chapters and skip content I don't need.

I like the content and the presentation style and video transcription, which speeds up the process!

The platform is fast, simple to use. The diversity of content and complementary videos really help with learning.
