SHIME Viromics Pipeline

Development of a viromics pipeline geared towards the analysis of the SHIME system for complex gut microbiome research.

Objectives

• Analyze viral communities in SHIME system
• Identify bacteriophages and their hosts
• Track viral dynamics over time
• Create reproducible analysis workflow

Methodology

Using metagenomic sequencing and bioinformatics tools to characterize the virome in simulated gut environments.
