Different approaches must be followed based on the sequencing method (16S or shotgun) and while these can provide partially overlapping information, they are conceptually distinct. Understanding their differences and similarities can be useful in the interpretation of the results of microbiome studies %K Multiple sclerosis %K microbiome %K computational analysis %U https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/1352458518811205
