Description:
Next generation sequencing is the ultimate tool for all varieties of genetic studies including metagenomics and population studies, epigenetics, transcriptomics, health and disease genetics, genome de novo assembling and re-sequencing. Combining the world's resource of next generation data into one publicly accessible place maximises the potential for finding patterns and comparing like datasets. This is the ultimate dataset for bioinformatics tools and it resides in EBI's Sequence Read Archive (SRA).
During the workshop we will talk about how to represent your own experiments and how to extract the datasets that you need for your analysis interests.
This session will usually be offered as one of a number of short introductions to EBI Services that can be booked separately.
Course TimeTablePlease note that if you are not eligible for a University of Cambridge Raven account you will need to book by completing the form available from the appropriate Booking System Page.

Without your co-operation, we cannot sustain the provision of widely available, inexpensive/free, high quality training.
We ask for 5 working days notice of cancellation, time to alert the next person on the waiting list.
None of our current courses requires you to bring your own computer. However, if you want to bring a laptop and have it online we can arrange access via the University Lapwing wireless service.
All our courses are a part of the Training Programme of the Graduate School of Life Sciences.
A full list of Bioinformatics courses offered by the School of Biological Sciences can be found here.
A number of other excellent programmes of Bioinformatics courses are offered by various Institutions. These include:
In the UK.
In the rest of Europe.
Other relevant events.
The course will be conducted in:
Room G12-13, Department of Genetics, University of Cambridge,
Tennis Court Road, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire CB2 3EH
Some helpful information on how to get here can be found in the Genetics Department's web pages.
The Department of Genetics has wheelchair access to the main entrance. G12-13 is on the ground floor where there are toilets suitable for wheelchair users. It is possible to use most of our workstations in a wheelchair, but if you would like to reserve a workstation (at the back of the class) which has more room for easy manoevour, or you have any other queries or particular requirements, please ask.
