Next-Generation Sequencing Data Analysis: A Practical Introduction
Quality Control, Read Mapping, Visualization and Differential Expression Analysis
When?
29 June - 1 July 2016
Where?
Munich, Germany
In a nutshell
- Learn the essential computing skills for NGS bioinformatics
- Understand NGS technology, data formats and algorithms
- Use bioinformatics tools for handling sequencing data
- Perform first downstream analyses and find differentially expressed genes
Scope and Topics
The purpose of this workshop is to get a deeper understanding in Next-Generation Sequencing with a special focus on bioinformatics issues. Advantages and disadvantages of current sequencing technologies and their implications on data analysis will be discovered. The participants will be trained on understanding their own NGS data, finding potential problems/errors therein and finally perform their first downstream analysis (differential gene expression). In the course we will use a real-life RNA-seq dataset from the current market leader illumina.

Hello David Langenberger,
i'm a beginner in this domain and I want to know about the basics of the Raw Data Output and Downstream analysis of genome(DNA) and sequence alignement, tools used in it and applications. If you please suggest some articles or sites where i can find what i'm looking for.
Dear hilal-101,
join our course in June and I'll give you all information needed! :)
