    Bioinformatics courses

    Dear all,

    I do work on DNA methylation (RRBS) and RNA-seq data. At my department we have bioinformatics performing the analysis, but I need to interpret it myself.

    Therefore I'm looking for good courses to learn about big data, RNA-seq analysis, DNA methylation analysis etc.
    I would like to get some courses in how to get the most out of the data.
    Like information about how I can align my DNA methylation data to previous ChiP-Seq data or find transcription factor motifs in their promoter regions via data from - http://software.broadinstitute.org/g...igdb/index.jsp

    In general just courses that will make me a better scientist in the data analysis parts.

    Also I found this course: http://bioinfotraining.bio.cam.ac.uk...bioinfo-figdes

    Do any of you know similar courses just online?

    Thanks a lot for your help!

    Best regards
    Emil Andersen

    I've been learning a lot from the genomic data science courses on Coursera. A little knowledge of command line interface and Python is kind of required-- they go over some of the basics, but it's pretty cursory before they jump into more advanced material.

      Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
      by SEQadmin2


      I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

      Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

      From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
      by SEQadmin2


      Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


      The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
