Bioinformatics: Whole Exome Sequencing and RNA-sequence data analysis

New

This course covers state-of-the-art tools and methods for NGS RNA-seq and exome variant data analysis, which are of major relevance in today's genomic and gene expression studies. Further information is available here.

Please note that if you are not eligible for a University of Cambridge Raven account you will need to book by linking here.

The course is oriented to experimental researchers, post-doctoral and PhD students who want to learn about the state-of-the-art of genomic variant and transcriptomics data analysis methodologies and carry out their own analysis.

Basic computing skills and graduate level in Life Sciences.

Number of sessions: 3

The aim of this course is to familiarize the students with the latest analysis methodologies and to provide hands-on training on the analytical approaches implemented for RNA-seq data and whole exome variant analysis.

Presentations and practicals

• This course is full already, and there is a considerable waiting list.
• We hope to run again early in 2014 and people on the waiting list will be notified early of new dates.

• Also, a slightly longer version of this course will be offered as a part of "The Gulbenkian Training Programme in Bioinformatics" from October 8th to October 11th 2013
