DESCRIPTION:Life scientists are increasingly using whole genome sequencing 
 (WGS) to ask and answer research questions across the tree of life. Before
  any of this work can be done\, there is the essential but challenging tas
 k of processing raw sequencing data. Processing WGS data is a computationa
 lly challenging\, multi-step process used to create a map of an individual
 ’s genome and identify genetic variant sites. The tools you use in this 
 process and overall workflow design can look very different for different 
 researchers\, it all depends on your dataset and the research questions yo
 u’re asking. Luckily\, there are lots of existing WGS processing tools a
 nd pipelines out there\, but knowing where to start and what your specific
  needs are is hard work\, no matter how experienced you are. \n\nIn this w
 ebinar we will walk through the essential steps and considerations for res
 earchers who are running and building reproducible WGS mapping and variant
  calling pipelines at the command line interface. We will discuss how to c
 hoose and evaluate a pipeline that is right for your dataset and research 
 questions\, and how to get access to the compute resources you need.\n\n**
 Who the webinar is for**\n\nThis webinar is intended for life scientists w
 ho are using and building whole genome sequencing mapping and variant call
 ing pipelines.  Some familiarity with the concepts of whole genome sequenc
 ing is recommended.\n\n**Presenter:** Dr Georgina Samaha\, Sydney Informat
 ics Hub\, University of Sydney\n\n**Date/time:** 24 August 2021 - 12:00-13
 :00 AEST / 11:30 - 12:30 ACST / 10:00-11:00 AWST\n\n**How to join:** This 
 webinar is free to join but you must register for a place in advance.\n\n*
