Data Carpentry Genomics #25

Closed smcclatchy closed 7 years ago

smcclatchy commented 8 years ago

Data Carpentry workshops are for any researcher who has data they want to analyze , and no prior computational experience is required. This hands-on workshop teaches basic concepts, skills and tools for working more effectively with data.

The focus of this two-day workshop will be on working with genomics data and data management and analysis for genomics research. We will cover connecting to and using cloud computing and the command line for sequence quality control and bioinformatics workflows. We will not be teaching any particular bioinformatics tools, but the foundational skills that will allow you to conduct any analysis and analyze the output of a genomics pipeline.

Participants should bring their laptops and plan to participate actively. By the end of the workshop learners should be able to more effectively manage and analyze data and be able to apply the tools and approaches directly to their ongoing research. Participants will learn to analyze high-throughput (NGS) sequence data with:

• Unix command line basics • Sequence experiment planning & quality control • Genome alignment & cleanup • Variant calling • Workflow automation

Please register on the workshop website. https://smcclatchy.github.io/2017-02-09-farmington/
