DNA-Seq Next Generation Sequencing workshop

BBASH at University of Leicester is pleased to announce that applications for their upcoming Next Generation Sequencing training course is now open. Deadline for applications: 15th January 2016

Course description

This course will provide an introduction to next generation sequencing (NGS) platforms, data analysis and tools for data quality control, genome assembly and variant calling. The course will be delivered using a mixture of lectures and computer based hands on practical sessions using real data.

This course is aimed at wet-lab biologists who are involved in research projects that will require the handling and analysis of NGS data. A significant proportion of the course will be computer-based using command line tools in the Unix environment, therefore, in order to gain maximum benefit from the course all attendees will be required to have basic Unix skills.
