RNA-Seq Blog Transcriptome Research & Industry News
Workshop Location: California State University, Long Beach, CA
Workshop Dates: June 22-26, 2015
The goal of this project is to prepare faculty to guide students as co-investigators in novel genome research, focusing on high-throughput RNA-Seq as a tractable entry to NGS. Several faculty participated in our Working Group Retreat held at CSHL in June 2014 and helped refine the RNA-Seq workflow. The Green Line of DNA Subway, an intuitive browser-based interface, supports RNA-Seq analysis and provides an easy biological “on ramp” to the national supercomputing highway. The NSF Proposal Summary and Narrative provides details about the project rationale and structure. (more…)

RNA-Seq Boston 2015 will enable scientists to overcome the data bottleneck by applying the most appropriate bioinformatics tools and develop a unified, integrated approach for analysis and interpretation of huge data sets, which in turn can positively impact therapeutic and clinical developments.
This is an opportunity for you to collaborate with other bio-informaticians and biologists to better understand the tools being applied to optimize RNA-Seq data analysis and the application of RNA-Seq in basic research, drug discovery and development. (more…)
