After four successful years we are again inviting you to join our data analysis workshop which covers all basic steps of Next-Generation sequencing data analysis.
This five day computationally-intensive workshop focuses on quality control, sequence editing, read mapping and alignment. Additionally, this year we will pay a special attention to RNASeq data analysis.
You will be briefly introduced into the Linux operating system and in this environment you will analyze sequencing data using various publicly available tools.
Who should attend?
This workshop is aimed at beginners as well as advanced users, life scientists and bioinformaticians interested in the analysis of Next-Generation sequencing data. No prior knowledge of sequences data analysis or specific programming skills are required.

During the workshop…
- Trainers will provide lectures with follow-up hands-on exercises in order to have the participants learning and assessing their knowledge
- All workshop participants will perform all data analysis tasks themselves!
- The powerful computer infrastructure available at the conference center will be used (no personal laptops are required/allowed)
Overall, get ready for a very intensive week…
Workshop agenda
|
Day 1: Linux as a scientific tool - Go beyond the graphical interface
Day 2-3: Basic operations with NGS data - Get the full picture of NGS workflow
|
Day 4-5: RNASeq data analysis
Various tools will be explained and used including but not limited to HiSAT2, Salmon, MultiQC, R, DESeq2, FDR, goseq, GO, KEGG... |
Speakers
Our team of speakers includes professionals focusing on data analysis but also sample processing in Next-Generation Sequencing lab and other related tasks and therefore as a team able to provide a comprehensive insight into the whole data analysis workflow in context.
