Contents:
The 4th German Crop BioGreenformatics Network (GCBN) user training will provide a hands-on introduction to useful bioinformatics tools for biologists with little or no previous knowledge. The training will enable biologists to process their own small and large datasets using R and Linux based methods and is entirely computer-based with interspersed lectures Learning goals: Introduction into Linux and R (Ubuntu, RStudio) Sequence analysis using Blast and simple phylogenies (Ubuntu, Blast+, seaview) Data processing with Linux tools (awk, sed) Introduction to databases (concepts, SQL, programming) Statistics and figures (R)
Prerequisites:
We require students to self-study four online courses before the start: http://tryr.codeschool.com; http://linuxsurvival.com/; https://regexone.com/; https://www.w3schools.com/sql/ In total, 25 participants (PhD students & postdoctoral fellows) will be selected based on a short application. Please send your CV and a short motivation description of no more than 2000 characters in one (!) pdf file via email.
