Next-generation DNA sequencing (NGS) has progressed enormously over the past decade, transforming [[Genomics|genomic]] analysis and opening up many new opportunities for applications in clinical microbiology [[Laboratory|laboratories]]. The impact of NGS on microbiology has been revolutionary, with new microbial genomic sequences being generated daily, leading to the development of large databases of genomes and gene sequences. The ability to analyze microbial communities without culturing organisms has created the ever-growing field of metagenomics and microbiome analysis and has generated significant new insights into the relation between host and microbe. The medical literature contains many examples of how this new technology can be used for infectious disease diagnostics and pathogen analysis. The implementation of NGS in medical practice has been a slow process due to various challenges such as clinical trials, lack of applicable regulatory guidelines, and the adaptation of the technology to the clinical environment. In April 2015, the American Academy of Microbiology (AAM) convened a colloquium to begin to define these issues, and in this document, we present some of the concepts that were generated from these discussions.

"Ten simple rules for managing laboratory information"

Information is the cornerstone of research, from experimental data/metadata and computational processes to complex inventories of reagents and equipment. These 10 simple rules discuss best practices for leveraging laboratory information management systems (LIMS) to transform this large information load into useful scientific findings. The development of mathematical models that can predict the properties of biological systems is the holy grail of computational biology. Such models can be used to test biological hypotheses, guide the development of biomanufactured products, engineer new systems meeting user-defined specifications, and much more ...
