Microbiome data consists of highly dimensional and complex information. Taxonomic abundance stacked bar plots are commonly used to provide a broad overview of microbiome data and to pinpoint specific taxa of interest for further analysis. These scientific plots use color to convey complex information, making interpretation difficult for those with CVD who cannot perceive the entire spectrum of color and struggle to differentiate between certain hues. Two of the most popular tools for microbiome data analysis are Bioconductor in R and QIIME 2 in Python. Although Bioconductor and QIIME 2 are widely used analysis tools, they do not give users the option to apply color palettes which are both CVD-accessible and include enough hues to guarantee that individual shades will be distinguishable. 000041606 540__ $$fCC BY 000041606 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000041606 650__ $$aMycobiome$$012092 000041606 650__ $$aData Visualization$$012917 000041606 650__ $$aColor Vision Defects$$016912 000041606 650__ $$aDiversity, Equity, Inclusion$$013904 000041606 6531_ $$amicroshades 000041606 6531_ $$ataxonomic abundance 000041606 6531_ $$aCVD 000041606 6531_ $$acolorblindness 000041606 6531_ $$aaccessibility 000041606 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000041606 692__ $$aDepartment of Medical Informatics and Clinical Epidemiology$$041422 000041606 7001_ $$aRouhier, Alexandra$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000041606 711__ $$aResearch Week$$uOregon Health and Science University$$d2023 000041606 7201_ $$aMooney, Michael$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$eCollaborator$$7Personal 000041606 7201_ $$aBedrick, Steven$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$eCollaborator$$7Personal 000041606 7201_ $$aTotten, Annette$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$eCollaborator$$7Personal 000041606 8564_ $$9b070ac45-1915-4f39-9296-4d799a1a1706$$s62931$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/41606/files/ResearchWeek.2023.Rouhier.Alexandra.pdf 000041606 980__ $$aResearch Week 000041606 981__ $$aPublished$$b2023-08-18
