SUMMARY:4th NGS Summer School - NGS Data Analysis
DESCRIPTION:\nLearn the essential computing skills for NGS bioinformatics\nUnderstand NGS analysis algorithms (e.g. read alignment) and data formats\nUse bioinformatics tools for handling NGS data\nPerform first downstream analyses for studying genetic variation\nCompare different approaches for differential expression analysis\n\nThe purpose of this intense one week summer course is to get a deep understanding in Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) with a special focus on bioinformatics issues. Advantages and disadvantages of current sequencing technologies and their implications on data analysis will be discovered. You will be trained on understanding NGS data formats and handling potential problems/errors therein. In the summer school we will use a real-life RNA-seq dataset from the current market leader illumina.\nAll students will be enabled to perform important first tasks of NGS data analysis themselves. The layout of the summer school has been adapted to the needs of beginners in the field of NGS bioinformatics and allows scientists with no or little background in computer science to get a first hands-on experience in this new and fast evolving research topic.\nIn the evenings there will be social events\, like a conference dinner\, or a guided city tour through Berlin. These are always great networking possibilities.
