aMeta Workshop

Welcome to the workshop on aMeta: an accurate and memory-efficient ancient Metagenomic profiling workflow that will be held at Mersin University, Department of Biotechnology within the scope of the European Union funded NEOMATRIX collaboration project.

In this web page, we aim to publish the tutorial material of the aMeta ancient metagenomic profiling workflow.

aMeta Pochon & Bergfeldt et al., 2022 is designed to analyse the metagenomic content of ancient samples from a wide variety of host organisms (including humans) or from environmental samples.

Please find the GitHub repository of the pipeline here.

The tutorial part of the course is designed for a specific system. So, if you want to follow this tutorial on your own, you have to install the tools by yourself either as environmental modules or by creating a conda environment as described in the official aMeta GitHub, and activate this environment before performing the different commands.
