This project aims to develop R/Bioconductor tools to analyze AMR data by integrating publicly available human gut metagenomes with ARG profiles (e.g. metagenomics) and epidemiological, transmission data to study AMR gene co-migration.
Reproducible data science workflow and dissemination material to demonstrate the utilization of the latest Bioconductor multi-assay data integration framework in the context of resistome profiling in large population studies. This covers dedicated data structures and the complementary data analysis and visualization methods. The outcomes are reported via an automated pkgdown website.
The main outcome of this work is the reproducible project site including data science workflows for resistome analysis. This forms the basis for an extendable collection of resistome analysis workflows for reanalysis of data for new discoveries, methods development and educational purposes.
Future work will standardize and automate some of the key tools, and release them through open source software libraries such as mia in R/Bioconductor.
