EMBO Practical Course: 'Bioinformatics and genomes analyses'

Written by BCI Staff | Mar 22, 2014 11:23:00 PM

Bioinformatics and Genomes Analyses

Course - Athens, Greece

The landscape of exponentially increasing amount of genome data was recently enriched by additional knowledge of previously unknown regulatory systems (i.e snRNA and non-coding RNAs).

In this context the main objectives of the EMBO Practical Course are to strengthen skills of PhD students and young researchers in the domain of Bioinformatics and Genome Data Analyses on the use of advanced fundamental algorithms and their applications in genome studies.

The course topics will include theoretical and practical aspects in:

Genomes comparisons,

Evolutionary analyses (orthologs, paralogs and ancestral genomes inference),

RNAseq and Next Generation Sequencing (including algorithms, methods and sequence mapping tools, data analyses and applications).

The course programme will be centred on theoretical presentations followed by practical sessions.
Practical sessions in a Linux environment will involve Unix shell and Perl scripting. Participants are assumed to be familiar with this environment.
