Registration is now open for two bioinformatics workshops:
June 13-17, 2016
Using Galaxy for Analysis of RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq Data
(https://registration.genomecenter.uc...laxy_Workshop/)
Aug 29 - Sept. 2, 2016
Using Galaxy for Analysis of RNA-Seq, Exome Seq, and Variants
(https://registration.genomecenter.uc...laxy_Workshop/)
Each of these workshops will include a rich collection of lectures and hands-on sessions, covering both theory and tools. We will explore the basics of high throughput sequencing technologies, focusing on Illumina data for hands-on exercises.
Participants will explore software and protocols, create and modify workflows, and diagnose/treat problematic data, utilizing computing power of the Amazon Cloud (http://aws.amazon.com/).
Workshop exercises will be performed with provided datasets, using the popular Galaxy platform (http://usegalaxy.org) which allows for powerful web-based data analyses.
Topics will include:
The workshops will be held on the UC Davis campus and will run from 9am to 5pm each day.
Who Should Attend
Prior course participants have included faculty, post docs, grad students, staff, and industry researchers. There are no prerequisites other than basic familiarity with genomic concepts. Anyone with an interest in sequence analysis is welcome!
Registration Info
For more information, and to register, go to https://registration.genomecenter.ucdavis.edu/. Attendance is limited to 36 participants per workshop in order to foster an effective learning environment and ensure sufficient one-on-one attention. All registration is “first-come, first-served”. There is no application process.
The registration fee is $1,400 for UC and UC affiliates, $1,600 for other academic or non-profit participants and $2,000 for other participants. We accept credit cards, as well as UC Davis recharge accounts, for payment. Registration fees include light breakfast, lunch, and snacks, but do not include dinner, lodging or parking fees.
Amazon has kindly provided grants of $100 per participant for Amazon Web Services accounts. This will allow you to perform analysis during and after the course using Amazon’s resources, without purchasing your own high performance computing servers!
