User-friendly tools, workflows and custom pipelines for microbial multi-omics data analysis
Clean freshwater lies at the heart of human society. While most traditional water monitoring approaches test for specific chemicals or pathogens, the direct tracing of aquatic DNA poses a more holistic alternative which has hitherto been underappreciated due to challenges in logistics and investment. Here we present a simple, fast, inexpensive and reliable freshwater diagnostics workflow centred around portable nanopore DNA sequencing.

Metapolish
The merging, annotation & polishing tool for metabolite peak list data
Metapolish is a R tool that allows easy data processing of common Liquid- and Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC-/GCMS) raw peak data. The tool bridges the gap between the individual sample peak list outputs generated by MS-analysis software like Thermo Xcalibur-TraceFinder or Shimadzu GCMS solution and the standardised metabolite-concentration matrix input required by downstream metabolite analysis applications such as MetaboAnalyst.
