Using Networks to Study Microbes

Abstract

The goal of the course is to provide an introduction to the use of networks in microbiology. The students will receive an overview of the field of computational microbiology with special emphasis on data standardization* and data sources, and how to use graph structures to solve biological questions. Further, the students will get a hands on introduction to Python programming language and its scientific libraries. At the end of the course the students will be able to:

  • Use multiple data sources for studying microbes in different biological contexts
  • Build networks, visualize and analyse them using different tools
  • Use Python to extract, transform and analyse different data structures

Keywords

Computational microbiology, networks, databases, Python, programming, data, pipelines, data science.

Cheat Sheets

Basics

Python Installations

In this course we use Google Colab to execute notebooks. Notebooks are text files allowing the combination of Text, Code and the output of code. Colab offers an extended set of pre-installed tools. See the tutorial series.

Anaconda offers for your private computer an extended installations, including most tools you will ever need for Python.
