DESCRIPTION:**This course will take place on consecutive Wednesdays\, Octob
 er 18 and  25\, 2023\, in the afternoon.**\n# Overview\n[ASAP](https://asa
 p.epfl.ch/) (Automated Single-cell Analysis Portal) is a web-based\, colla
 borative portal aimed at democratizing single-cell omics data analyses and
  rendering it more accessible to researchers. ASAP does not require any in
 stallation and enables standardized analyses that can be run in minutes by
  any user without requiring significant computing power. The entire single
 -cell analysis pipeline is available in ASAP\, allowing users to choose fr
 om a panel of tools\, and guiding them through tutorials.\n\nThis 6 h cour
 se introduces participants to using ASAP for single-cell analysis\, throug
 h lectures and hands-on exercises.\n\n# Audience\nThis course is addressed
  to students\, postdocs\, and researchers\, from any scientific environmen
 t (academia\, facilities\, companies\, etc.) interested in analyzing singl
 e-cell data.\n\n# Learning outcomes\nAt the end of the course\, the partic
 ipants are expected to:\n* run an RNA-Seq analysis\n* carry out gene-set e
 nrichment analysis\n* perform a principle component analysis (PCA)\n* visu
 alize the results for multiple samples\n* generate a scatter plot\n\n# Pre
 requisites\n##### Knowledge / competencies\nThis course is designed for be
 ginners. Basic knowledge of single-cell analysis (equivalent to the SIB co
 urses [Single-cell Transcriptomics](https://www.sib.swiss/training/course/
 20230703_ISCTR) or NGS - Single-cell RNA-Seq Analysis) is required.\n#####

 your own computer with an Internet connection.\n\n# Schedule - CET time zo
