Metagenomic studies are an important area for the DOE JGI now and in the near future. In the past two years a handful of large-scale metagenomic studies have emerged, revealing computational bottlenecks in data processing, integration visualization and comparative analysis. The main goal of this meeting, held October 12-13, 2011 at the DOE JGI, was to explore potential solutions to informatics challenges encountered in the studies of massive amounts of metagenome data.

About The US Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (JGI)
The U.S. Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute, supported by the DOE Office of Science, unites the expertise of five national laboratories—Lawrence Berkeley, Lawrence Livermore, Los Alamos, Oak Ridge, and Pacific Northwest—along with the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology to advance genomics in support of the DOE missions related to clean energy generation and environmental characterization and cleanup. JGI is operated by the University of California for the U.S. Department of Energy. Check us out on Twitter, Facebook and SciVee.
