I've been in bioinformatics around 5 years, I'm comfortable on the command line, can QC NGS data, produce reasonable genomes and transcriptomes, and can generally achieve most of what I conceive in perl/python/R.
Are there any workshops that can help build on my experience? I'm thinking of things like appropriate assessing and improving the quality of assemblies, breaking down the hundreds of parts of the Tuxedo packages, traversing large datasets with things like bioconductor, bedops/tools...
Everything I seem to see advertised is aimed at beginners (which is definitely in requirement), but I'm looking to improve my skills and there are some things that you can only get from demonstrations, rather than reading manuals and --help
pages.
Thanks
Exactly what I am looking for...
Thanks, I knew I couldn't be the only one!
I surmise (gut feeling opinion, please object) that there are not many courses out there at past-beginner level because a) the demand is lower b) not many people know what the advance level should be. I'm thinking especially about less mainstream analyses like ChIP-Seq, methylation, open chromatin mapping (as opposed to RNA-Seq, SNP calling). There is still a lot of debate about how these data should be best analyzed.
Yes! I have been looking for this too. Are any of these workshops for more advanced bioinformatics posted online anywhere? Most of what I find is for beginners.
