Workshop description

This workshop focuses on the bioinformatics analysis of microbiome. Specifically, we will demonstrate how to perform downstream analysis (after OTU picking) using MicrobiotaProcess and phyloseq.

Pre-requisites

• Basic knowledge of R syntax.
• General understanding of Amplicon analysis or have strong interests.
• Familiarity with some bioconductor objects or S4 class.
• A computer that runs on Unix-like system.

How to run Docker

• Install Docker (https://www.docker.com/)
• Pull the Docker image from Docker hub: docker pull xushuangbin/microbiotaprocessworkshop
• Run the image: docker run -e PASSWORD=yourpassword -p 8787:8787 xushuangbin/microbiotaprocessworkshop
• Log in to RStudio at http://localhost:8787 using username rstudio and password yourpassword. For Windows users, you also need to provide your IP address, you can find it using docker-machine ip default.
• Inside the RStudio, run: browseVignettes(package = "xushuangbin/microbiotaprocessworkshop")
• You can click one of the links: “HTML”, “source”, “R code”
• In case of The requested page was not found error, try add ‘help/’ in front of the hostname in the URL (this is a known bug): http://localhost:8787/help/library/microbiotaprocessworkshop/doc/MicrobiotaProcessWorkshop.html
