    2014 Workshop on Genomics, Český Krumlov, Czech Republic

    2014 Workshop on Genomics, Český Krumlov, Czech Republic

    Dates: 12-24 January, 2014

    Application Deadline: 15 October, 2013 is the preferred application deadline, after which time people will be admitted to the course following application review by the admissions committee. However, later applications will certainly be considered for admittance or for placement on a waiting list.

    Registration Fee: $1800 USD. Fee includes opening reception and access to all course material, but does not include other meals or housing. Special discounted pricing has been arranged for hotels, pensions and hostels. Information regarding housing and travel will be made to applicants following acceptance.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about the Workshop and Český Krumlov can be found here: http://evomics.org/workshops/faq/

    Workshop Overview:
    The Workshop on Genomics consists of a series of lectures, demonstrations and computer laboratories that cover various aspects of genomics focusing primarily on the analysis of modern sequencing data. Faculty are chosen exclusively for their effectiveness in teaching theory and practice. The course is designed for established investigators, postdoctoral scholars, and advanced graduate students. Scientists with strong interests in the uses of modern sequence data, analytical methods, and the use of modern sequence data to study non-model organisms, SNP detection and analysis, genome visualization tools and related areas are encouraged to apply for admission. Lectures and computer laboratories total ~90 hours of scheduled instruction. No programming experience is required.

    Topics to be covered include:
    - Sequencing technologies
    - Genomics study design
    - Manipulation of sequence data using the command-line and quality assessment and control techniques
    - Analyzing genomic data in the “cloud” using Amazon Web Services (AWS)
    - Assembly and alignment: basic analyses used for de novo and re-sequencing studies
    - The use of next-generation sequence data to study non-model organisms
    - RAD (Restriction site Associated DNA) sequence analysis
    - Variant detection
    - Metagenome analysis
    - Transcriptome quantification and mapping for expression and gene structure elucidation
    - An introduction to using python and iPython notebook
    - Evolutionary genomics

    Co-directors: Naiara Rodríguez-Ezpeleta, Scott A. Handley, Konrad Paszkiewicz, and Karin Rengefors

    Offered in partnership with the Graduate Research School in Genomic Ecology (GENECO) http://www.geneco.se/.

      16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
      by SEQadmin2




      NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

      Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
      by SEQadmin2



      Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

      Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating
