The #bugsigdb Outreachy contribution started with a GREAT interest from more than 30 applicants from all around the world!
"Curating microbiome studies brings challenges and fun, especially in a such supportive community"

If you published work with differential & taxonomy analysis & would love to be in #bugsigsdb, an open source (community-editable!) of microbial signatures, just DM me!
The outreachy applicants will be happy to curate your study!
- yes, we are looking at both, amplicon & shotgun seq studies i.e. differential abundance results from community seq studies
- yes, we are looking at both, human and non-human hosts and other environments!
Feel free to DM me for any doubt
I'll be responsible also for curation & global communication of the **curatedMetagenomicData resource**, incl samples w/ standardized processing & manually-curated metadata, led by Nicola Segata @leviwaldron1.bsky.social Paolo Manghi Edoardo Pasolli &c
