DESCRIPTION:Whole-genome expression analyses have become a cornerstone of m
 odern biological and biomedical\nresearch. Analyzing the structure and rel
 ative expression level of tens of thousands of mRNA transcripts\nin parall
 el allows us to unravel how organisms develop and respond to their environ
 ment\, identify novel\nmetabolic pathways and other molecular processes\, 
 and pinpoint the molecular and genetic basis for\ndisease. However\, such 
 analyses also bring with them significant experimental\, computational\, a
 nd\nstatistical challenges. The “Transcriptomics!” workshop will inclu
 de in-depth lectures and hands-on\ntutorials to equip participants with th
 e tools to design\, perform\, and analyze their own RNA-seq\nexperiments. 
 The following topics will be covered:\n• How to design a robust transcri
 ptomic experiment\n• Next generation sequencing platforms\, library prep
 \, and quality control (QC) of results\n• Starting simple: transcriptomi
 c analysis in bacteria\n• Life gets complicated: transcriptomic analysis
  in eukaryotes – introns and alternative splicing\n• Single cell trans
 criptomics\n• Environmental (microbiome) gene expression analyses (meta-
 transcriptomes)\nThe workshop is open to 40 advanced (MSc and PhD) student
 s\, postdocs and research scientists.\nParticipants taking the course for 
 academic credit are required to submit a written\nproject. The course will
  be taught in English to accommodate foreign students.
