DESCRIPTION:Educators:\nAbdulrahman Salhab\, Michael Scherer (de.NBI-Epi / 
 HD-HuB)\n\nDate:\n18 -19th May\, 2020\n\nLocation:\nSaarbrücken\n\nConten
 ts:\nThis course aims to convey basic knowledge on the bioinformatic proce
 ssing of DNA methylation data. Following the outline of a standard experim
 ent we discuss qualities of various assays and when they are beneficial. I
 n the first half there will be a slight focus on sequencing data. We will 
 prepare raw sequence reads for alignment\, methylation calls and identific
 ation of differentially methylated sites or regions. Throughout\, we consi
 der how experimental settings interact and influence the results and how q
 uality control can be used to understand generated data and might improve 
 on subsequent experiments. The second half will focus on how to evaluate t
 he data and connect it to public resources to further understanding of the
  results. Presentations will be interleaved with practical sessions\n\nLea
 rning goals:\n    • Understand the bioinformatic processing of DNA methy
 lation\n    • Preparation and description of raw read files\n    • Bas
 ic generation of methylation calls and differentially methylated regions\n
     • How to evaluate DNA methylation data\n\nPrerequisites:\nThe course
  requires basic computer skills:\n    • installation of programs\n    
 • office package with focus on spread-sheets\n    • Web-browsing\n\nKe
 ywords:\nDNA methylation\n\nTools:\ngemBS\, RnBeads\n
