Teaching and Outreach Materials
For a full description of my teaching experience, see my CV.
Bioinformatics workshop materials
I am a certified Software and Data Carpentry workshop instructor, and I have developed and taught several workshops on computing and bioinformatics for diverse learners. Materials for some are linked below:
A microbiome-focused adaptation of the Data Carpentry R for Ecologists lesson, using 16S rRNA amplicon sequence variant data as the main analysis example
Slides from a workshop on version control and organizing computational projects for biologists
Workshop materials on integrative analysis of metagenomic and metabolomic data for first-year biomedical graduate students
Slides for hands-on quiz sections from an undergraduate bioinformatics class
Microbiome teaching resources
I contributed to the development of a lesson plan on microbial ecology and the human gut microbiome for high school students. The lesson plan, created by the UW Genome Sciences Education and Outreach office meets NGSS standards and is partly based on a public talk I gave through the Pacific Science Center Teen Science Cafe program. The materials also include a video interview with me about science-related careers and why the gut microbiome is awesome!
