Abstract
PLoS Computational Biology Conference Postcard from PSB 2011
Highlights
Microbial ecology, the relatively young and flourishing juncture of ecology and microbiology, had its own session at the Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing 2011 for the first time: ‘‘Microbiome Studies: Understanding How the Dominant Form of Life Affects Us’’

To address one of the major requisites of microbial ecology, biologists need more sophisticated and still computationally efficient quantitative approaches that can provide better accuracy on long-tailed microbial samples to estimate the diversity of their originating community
