2017 Introduction to Bioinformatics
In an effort to make next-generation sequencing and bioinformatics techniques more accessible to all audiences, HPCBio (High Performance Computing in Biology) staff teach two 4-hour workshop sessions covering a variety of topics ranging from next-generation sequencing, quality assessment/control of sequencing reads, alignment, assembly, and RNA-Seq. HPCBio staff aim to familiarize and advise attendees on the why and how of current bioinformatics techniques through lectures and intuitive hands-on exercises, without needing to teach any technical skills or full bioinformatics analyses.
