As a bioinformatician, you likely use Python packages like BioPython, scanpy, or scikit-bio. Installing and managing these packages has traditionally been done with pip or conda, but these tools can...
Microbiome data is inherently compositional - the counts we obtain from sequencing provide information about the relative abundance of taxa, not their absolute abundance in the original sample. This has...
Micromamba is a fast, lightweight version of the Mamba package manager. Unlike Miniconda, it comes as a single executable with no default Python installation or base environment, making it perfect...
Hostile is a fantastic tool
for removing host reads from whole metagenome shotgun datasets.
It’s very user-friendly and has pre-built databases for human and murine reads decontaminating.
