This course will teach participants how to use the CLC Genomics Workbench for genome analysis. The CLC Genomics Workbench is a commercial software for the analysis and visualization of next generation sequencing data. Professional trainers from CLC bio will present the Genomics Workbench with a focus on de-novo genome assembly, short-read mapping, and RNA-Seq experiment. The course is split into two parts:
1.) Basic training on Genomics Workbench: Data preparation, QC evaluation, read mapping, variant detection, de novo sequencing, genome finishing, de novo assembly
2.) Advanced training on Genomics Workbench: Set-up automatic pipeline, RNA-Seq analysis, Chip-Seq and methylation analysis, OTU Clustering and Analysis of Microbial Communities
Learning goals:
Participants will be instructed in the genomics workflow and gain understanding of the possibilities and limitations of genome sequencing and sequence analysis.
Prerequisites:
The course is aimed at PhD students, postdoctoral fellows or other scientists with a solid background in bioinformatics and molecular biology.
Keywords:
Genomics, Annotation, RNA-Seq, Short-read mapping
