Milrd was the first virtual training project I had ever completed and it by far exceeded my expectations. Being new to metagenomic analysis, it provided me with a solid foundation to build upon and access to excellent mentors to assist me in the process at my convenience.
The structure worked very well with my schedule even during the busiest weeks of the semester. The modules were informative and applicable to my own research projects. It was a unique and informative opportunity that I would recommend to anyone looking to gain experience in large-scale data analysis.
