RNA-seq Bioinformatics: A Practical Introduction - Mapping, Visualization, Basic Analyses
When?
October 16th - 17th 2014
Where?
Leipzig, Germany
Scope and Topics
The purpose of this workshop is to get a deeper understanding in High-Throughput Sequencing (HTS) with a special focus on bioinformatics issues. Advantages and disadvantages of current sequencing technologies and their implications on data analysis will be discovered. The participants will be trained on understanding their own HTS data, finding potential problems/errors therein and finally begin writing their own analysis pipelines.
By the end of this workshop the participants will:

By the end of this workshop the participants will:
- be familiar with the sequencing methods from various platforms:
- Illumina
- 454 (Roche)
- Ion Torrent
- PacBio - be aware of the different error sources of these machines
- understand common data formats and standards
- know relevant tools for HTS data processing
- automate tasks with shell scripting to create reusable data pipelines
- perform basic analyses (gene quantification, differential expression)
- plot and visualize results
- be able to continue and reuse all analyses
