DESCRIPTION:Course Information: https://www.scilifelab.se/events/ngsdatavt1
 8lkp/ #training Course leader: Manfred Grabherr\, manfred.grabherr@scilif
 elab.se and Malin Larsson\, malin.larsson@scilifelab.se Course content Th
 e course will provide an entry-level introduction to a wide range of analy
 tical techniques for massively parallel sequencing\, including basic Linux
  commands. We will pair lectures on the theory of analysis algorithms with
  practical computational exercises demonstrating the use of common tools f
 or analyzing data from each of several common sequencing study designs. To
 pics covered will include: Basic Linux usage NGS read-to-reference alignme
 nt (genomic and RNA-Seq) Variant calling in populations De novo assembly o
 f RNA-sequence data Reference-guided RNA-Seq expression analysis Analysis 
 techniques covered will focus mostly on data from the Illumina platform\, 
 but we will discuss other sequencing platforms and the advantages and chal
 lenges to using their data. Entry requirements A background in genetics\, 
 cell biology\, biomedicine\, biochemistry\, bioinformatics or comparable i
 s desirable To get the maximum benefit from the course we would like you t
 o Have relevant previous experience in sequencing or analysis Have a resea
 rch project where you are currently using next generation sequencing or ar
 e planning to use next generation sequencing Be able to bring your own lap
 top for the practical computational exercises It is beneficial if you are 
 directly performing analyses or if you have a support role and will be abl
 e to participate in a wide range of projects and transfer your knowledge t
 o others Selection criteria include correct entry requirements\, motivatio
 n to attend the course as well as gender and geographical balance. Importa
 nt dates Application open: August 1 Application deadline: October 7 Confir
