Workshop FAQ

Who should attend?

Anyone with interest in gene expression analyses.  Prior course participants have included faculty, post docs, grad students, advanced undergraduates, staff, and industry researchers.

What are the prerequisites?

Prior bioinformatic experience is not required.  We have dedicated the first day of workshop to the basics of Linux and high performance computing.

What do I need?

You will need your own laptop to use, have a recent version of R, RStudio installed, and some other applications.  We will send you details of softwares and installation instructions with your registration acknowledgement email.

Can I bring my own data?

We will provide experimental datasets for use during the workshop, as this helps to keep the workshop moving. There will be time, however, to discuss your own datasets and how you might work with them outside of the workshop.

How much does it cost?

The registration fee is $500 and $400 for UConn affiliates. It is payable at the time of registration with credit card or KFS.

Where is the workshop?

It will be held on zoom, and will run from 10:00am to 2:00pm EST on the dates indicated.

How do I apply?
