We still have space available in our upcoming RNA-seq Analysis workshop (virtual but live instruction – Nov. 9, 16, + 30). This hands-on workshop is designed for researchers working with a reference genome and annotation.
Participants will gain practical experience with experimental design, high-throughput sequencing basics, quality control, alignment to a reference genome, differential expression analysis, and gene ontology / gene set enrichment.
NEW FORMAT – PAY PER MODULE – TAKE WHAT YOU NEED, SKIP WHAT YOU DON’T
No prior experience? No problem! We provide pre-recorded training materials covering basic programming principles and R environment set-up.
Reserve your spot now: bioinformatics.uconn.edu/cbc-workshops/
Seats are limited—sign up today!
Ready to examine epigenetic modifications?
We still have space available in our Methylation Analysis workshop (virtual but live instruction – Nov. 17-19). The workshop will cover how to generate methylation calls, map reads, assess data quality and perform quality control, quantify methylation levels, and perform differential methylation analyses using real experimental datasets on a university HPC.
No prior experience? No problem! We’ll start with an intro to Linux and HPC to ensure you’re ready to dive in.
