High throughput single cell approaches have become increasingly applied in marine sciences. Predominantly separated between single cell sequencing, or single cell imaging, the next frontier aims at connecting both, generating complex data architecture to link environmental data, with single cell images and sequences. 

In this webinar, we will share our ongoing initiative to generate a scalable and FAIR workflow to both visualise and sequence symbiosis in phytoplankton.

Please note, this webinar does not include a recording or presentation slides for later access.

Who is this course for?

This webinar is suitable for marine biologists and environmental scientists collecting samples from the natural environment, generating, visualising, annotating and analysing large, multimodal datasets such as imaging data, and sharing their data by submitting them to public data repositories. The webinar will support you to set up an efficient data flow that is aligned with FAIR principles.

This event is part of a webinar series organised by the STANDFLOW project, an initiative supported by EMBL’s Planetary biology Transversal Theme. STANDFLOW is about a collaborative effort towards creating a standardised data management workflow. The project primarily utilises imaging data derived from samples collected through the TREC (Traversing European Coastlines) and the Roscoff Culture Collection.

Outcomes

By the end of the webinar you will be able to: 

• Explore the LABID platform to automatically link environmental samples, with imaging cell sorting and sequencing
• Identify how to link sequencing output directly to NEXTFLOW scalable pipeline for symbiont identification
