    Metagenomics / Transcriptomics Workshop @ Harvard Center for Aids Research 9/14-9/19

    Priority registration is reserved for students of Harvard University and affiliated institutions. Admission to non Harvard University or affiliate students will be on a first-come, first-serve basis

    In response to the number one training need identified by the Harvard University Center for AIDS Research (CFAR) Community, CFAR will be sponsoring a week-long workshop focused exclusively on computational biology. This intensive, hands-on course will feature morning and afternoon sessions taught by expert faculty and technical assistants from the Broad, Ragon Institute, Harvard School of Public Health and Washington University, St. Louis. All participants will acquire fundamental computational skills, appropriate study design, data interpretation, and overall literacy in bioinformatics.

    When: Monday, September 15 - Friday, September 19 Morning Sessions 9:00 - 12:00 | Afternoon Sessions 2:00 - 5:00

    Where: Joseph B. Martin Conference Center Harvard Medical School 77 Avenue Louis Pasteur Boston, MA 02115

    Fee: There is a $300 registration fee to offset the costs of providing this 5 day workshop. Breakfast, lunch, and access to Amazon Web Services cloud infrastructure are included. A networking reception will be held for all participants who complete the workshop.

    Registration Link: Please go to Harvard's secure web portal to register (space is limited) http://www.events.harvard.edu/profil...=0x2576984ac4&

    Distinguished Faculty:

    Mike Zody, New York Genome Center
    Manuel Garber, University of Massachusetts Medical School
    Scott Handley, Washington University School of Medicine

    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
