The Earth HoloGenome Initiative aims to promote, facilitate, coordinate and standardise hologenomic research on animal-microbiota systems worldwide
Generate paired animal genomic and microbial metagenomic data of wild organisms worldwide
Create an interdisciplinary network of field biologists, (meta)genomicists, microbiologists and data scientists
Standardise and optimise sampling, preservation and laboratory methods to enable reproducible and comparable research based on open resources
Create a transparent biobank and database to enhance data generation and analysis efficiency
EHI is built on the strong convinction that collaboration, rather than competition, is the way to creating groundbreaking science
We firmly believe that all procedures, results and knowledge must be openly accessible for everyone
We defend that all management and research procedures, as well as project-development status and sample/data availability must be fully transparent
Here, you will find the laboratory procedures used to generate high-quality hologenomic data in the EHI.
Here, you will find a summary of the bioinformatic pipeline we use for generating analytical data from raw sequencing files.
Here, you will find resources to summarise, visualise and model data generated through the EHI pipeline.
including mammalogists, ornithologists and herpetologists have joined the EHI network

have been generated from samples processed in the EHI laboratory
or draft bacterial genomes have been reconstructed from metagenomic data
