Hello world !

[smatamoros]

Hello there !

This seems like a great forum, I can't believe I didn't found ot about it earlier.

My name is Sébastien, I am a microbiologist currently doing quite a bit of metagenomics. I started using NGS 2-3 years ago, with 454 16S sequencing of bacterial communities. I am still working on microbiota (human and animal models related), but moving on Illumina/Ion Torrent 16S and shotgun (metagenomics).

I have a bit of experience in QIIME, bio statistics (R, PCOrd...) and microbiology in general. I'll be happy to share my experience, so don't hesitate to ask !

See you soon on the forum !

Hello Sebastien

I hope you are well.
Would you be able to advise me on the best way to proceed with analysis
of my 454 data. I am carrying out research on the microbiota of chicken GI tract.
I am having some difficulties in developing a pipeline for data analysis.
I have virtually no experience in Bioinformatics.

Cheers
