Exploring networks of care in the end-of-life context through eco maps: : feminist perspectives on caregiving in between family, community, and professionals in Sweden

Participants were randomly assigned to make decisions about extracting

aMeta : an accurate and memory-efficient ancient metagenomic profiling workflow

Analysis of microbial data from archaeological samples is a growing field with great potential for understanding ancient environments, lifestyles, and diseases. However, high error rates have been a challenge in ancient metagenomics, and the availability of computational frameworks that meet the demands of the field is limited. Here, we propose aMeta, an accurate metagenomic profiling workflow for
