Carmen La Fuente developed and delivered a comprehensive metatranscriptomics educational module for the longTREC/summer_school repository, focusing on end-to-end workflows from data preprocessing to visualization. She structured the repository with dedicated folders, integrated Jupyter notebooks for tasks such as adapter trimming, rRNA removal, and read mapping, and included Krona-based visualizations to support interactive learning. Her work emphasized maintainable documentation and clear learning outcomes, using Python, Markdown, and command line tools like minimap2 and samtools. Through careful version control and content organization, Carmen ensured the materials were ready for consistent delivery, supporting both instructors and learners in bioinformatics education.

Month 2025-07 — Delivered a comprehensive Metatranscriptomics Educational Module in longTREC/summer_school, consolidating PDFs, notebooks, and visualization assets to support end-to-end learning of dataset overview, preprocessing (adapter trimming and rRNA removal), read mapping, and Krona-based visualization. Key repository hygiene and content organization included: creation of a dedicated metatranscriptomics folder and addition of notebooks and Krona files; cleanup of placeholder files. No major bug fixes were logged; focus was on feature delivery and maintainability.
