Cristian Romero was awarded a prize for his work in Corpogen
With the help of Adán Ramírez and other researchers at Corpogen, Cristian did next generation sequencing with the aim of studying the diversity of fungi and bacteria. He PCR-amplified the V3-V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene to identify bacteria and the ITS1 region to identify fungi. The libraries were then sequenced in the Illumina MiSeq at Corporación Corpogen.
