Short intro to Unix utilities for NGS

Keith Bradnam and Ian Korf's "Intro to Unix and Perl" online course is one of the best resources for new users: http://korflab.ucdavis.edu/Unix_and_...ent.html#part1

Thanks a lot, this is exactly in the spirit of what I was looking for!

Hello everyone,

one of our bioinformaticians posted a blog entry describing a few tricks he uses (from the classic Unix toolbox) in the context of NGS data analyses. As a longtime and avid user of Unix myself, I was surprised to learn a few things!

As a reference, the entry is here: http://bioinfo.iric.ca/working-with-large-files/.

Are there any extensive tutorials (or online courses) designed to teach Unix skills to bioinformaticians involved with NGS? I'd love to have a list of recommendations I could use with new students / interns.

Best,

Sébastien
