-      Sequencing data analysis for a spectrum of viral genomes with Galaxy. If you encounter any issue please ask us on Slack. 
+      Here you find three hands-on tutorials demonstrating sequencing data analysis with Galaxy for three, rather different viral pathogens in increasing order of analysis complexity. Feel free to work through all three of them or just pick the one covering the virus you are most interested in, but consider watching first the introductory video, which explains some of the particularities of each virus and the corresponding analysis challenges.
