Virtual RAD-seq Workshop :: (Click here to expand)
Workshop schedule
Day 1: Introduction to Linux and high performance computing.
Day 2-4:
The workshop will cover basic concepts and walk through a complete analysis on a high performance computing cluster. The analysis will start with raw reads and go through some very basic analyses of population genetic structure. The core learning goal is to familiarize attendees with the steps necessary to analyze RAD-seq data, the tools available, common data formats, and possible pitfalls they may encounter. The short duration of the workshop means that nearly all the time will be given to explaining the rationale and mechanics of each stage of the analysis, and not to independent exercises.

Who should attend?
Anyone with keen interest in RAD-seq. Prior course participants have included faculty, post docs, grad students, advanced undergraduates, staff, and industry researchers.
What are the prerequisites?
