These courses combine lessons and hands-on training and it is particularly suitable for biologists who are new to Next Generation Sequencing technology.
The aims of the courses are:
- facilitate the interaction between wet biologists and bionformaticians
- providing to biologists simplified tools for basic RNA-seq analysis.
- providing bioinformaticians, which are entering in the world of NGS data analysis, tips and tricks to analyse RNAseq data.
An introductory course to RNA-seq (Centro di Biotecnologie Molecolari, Via Nizza 52, Torino, Italy, 17-19 March 2015) |
An advance course to RNA-seq (Centro di Biotecnologie Molecolari, Via Nizza 52, Torino, Italy, 14-16 April 2015) |
This hands-on course is organized by B&Gu with guest speakers from Illumina . The course is suitable for biologists who are new to RNA-seq technology. Additionally, if you have analyzed gene expression data from microarrays and would now like to do projects using RNA-seq technology, then this workshop will enable you to gather information on the critical issue on RNA-seq from sample prep to data analysis. The course is based on the use of Bioconductor open-source software. However, R coding skill is not required since all the analyses are done using oneChannelGUI, a graphical interface to Bioconductor tools, designed for life scientists who are not familiar with R language. Knowledge of statistics is not necessary prior to attending the course. Further course information, agenda and logistics can be found in the course booklet. |
This hands-on course is organized by B&Gu with guest speakers from Illumina and Singapore Immunology Network. The course is suitable for bionformaticians and biologists with coding skills, which are new to RNA-seq technology. The course is based on the use of Bioconductor open-source software. Knowledge of at least one scripting language is required. R coding skill is not required since it is part of the course. Further course information, agenda and logistics can be found in the course booklet. |
