Hi everyone! I am Emily Kin, an environmental engineer and PhD student specializing in wastewater nutrient recovery with background in soil chem at Northwestern University! Currently working on the CANDO+P process and looking to create/understand a pipeline for hybrid metagenomic assembly with the purpose of getting high quality (complete) MAGs to understand the prevalence and role of incomplete denitrifiers versus differential gene abundance under various environmental conditions/ roles in nitrous oxide accumulation etc. Really excited to learn more and exchange ideas with you all.

Hi @Emily Kin! You posted your github username in the #C04F9USP989 slack channel, which is really meant to be a read-only guide for folks joining Slack (if we could make it actually read only, we would S shakefist ) I deleted your message to keep it tidy there - if you'd like to work on developing pipelines and need to join the nf-core github organisation, please post in the #CEB982K2T slack channel instead 🙂

And have you already seen #CE9MS66BS ? It does hybrid assembly, so maybe it does most of what you need already!

Hi James, yes definitely https://doi.org/10.1093/nargab/lqac007 is the paper that led me here. I'm still in the very rudimentary stage of setting up nextcore and understanding the long reads analysis part.

Nice! We are very collaborative over there so if you feel mag gets you most of the way, we are happy to disucss adding additional sections if you feel it is missing something (saving you time, and allowing you to focs on downstream)
