Galaxy is an open source, web‐based platform for data intensive biomedical research. It makes computational bioinformatics applications accessible to users lacking programming experience by enabling them to easily specify parameters for running tools and workflows. Galaxy provides access to a powerful analysis infrastructure through the web, and allows for reproducible and transparent data analysis.
Learning goals:
The Galaxy workshop offers you comprehensive knowledge about NGS data analyses. You will learn about RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, Exome-seq, and MethylC-seq data. More topics that could be covered are analyses in e.g. Proteomics and Cheminformatics. After the workshop you will be able to create pipelines for your individual analyses and visualize your results.
Prerequisites:
The course is aimed at PhD students, postdoctoral fellows or other scientists with a solid background in bioinformatics and molecular biology.
Keywords:
