Course: Microbes on Natural Ecosystems
Code: ES2304 & ES7027
Main instructor: Adriana Lopes dos Santos
Academic Year: 2022-2023 - First semester
Institution: Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
School: Asian School of the Environment
Objectives
During the first half of this course, we will walk through some basics concepts in microbiology, the diversity within the three domain of life and how microbes control the chemistry of our planet. In the second half, we will start by some common techniques used in microbial molecular ecology, and we’ll dive deep into real life high throughput sequencing datasets from distinct oceanic regions. With these datasets and some basic tools, we will describe biogeographic and diversity patterns of specific microbial eukaryotes from the marine plankton.
