DESCRIPTION:This course will give insights into\, and practical experience 
 in\, data visualisation for exploring complex and multi-dimensional biolog
 ical data.\n\nBiological and life sciences data often consists of multiple
  dimensions: a combination of numerical values\, ordered data\, categories
 \, and time-series. To make sense of this data\, simple plots like scatter
 plots\, barcharts\, and boxplots are often not enough. Still\, visualisati
 on is critical in gaining deep insight into the data. This is why many cus
 tom visualisations originated in the biological field.\n\nIn this course\,
  we will dive into the topic of visualisation of complex biological data a
 nd how it can be used to gain insight into and get a "feel" for a dataset\
 , so that targeted analyses can be defined. It will be delivered through a
  mixture of lectures and workshop sessions\, and will provide hands-on exp
 erience in developing visualisations. The course will focus on working wit
 h omics (e.g. genomics\, transcriptomics) data rather than e.g. imaging da
 ta.\n\n**Additional information**\n\nThe course fee is inclusive of four n
 ights' accommodation and catering\, including dinner.\n\nWe plan to delive
 r this course in an in-person manner onsite at our training suite at EMBL-
 EBI\, Hinxton.  Hybrid options are not currently available. Please be awa
 re that we are continually evaluating the ongoing pandemic situation and\,
  as such\, may need to change the format of courses at short notice. Your 
 safety is paramount to us\; you can read our [COVID guidance policy](https

 iday in the UK](https://www.gov.uk/government/news/bank-holiday-proclaimed
 -in-honour-of-the-coronation-of-his-majesty-king-charles-iii)\, to mark th
 e Coronation of King Charles III. The course will take place as outlined i
 n the programme\, including sessions as planned on Monday 8 May.  Should
  you be selected as a participant\, please take extra care planning your t
 ravel to the course\, as public transport may be affected by the Coronatio

 heck if you need a visa and apply in plenty of time before travelling. Cur
 rent waiting times are more than six weeks. For more information please vi
