Workshop 6: Advanced Bioinformatics: RNA-seq
Instructor: Dr. Fares Z. Najar
When: April 17th, 2025 (2:30 - 5:00 PM)
Format: Hybrid format. In-person (limited to 42 participants) and Virtual (via Zoom).
Where: Digital Scholarship Center, Edmon Low Library
Prerequisite: Familiarity with basic Linux commands and R
Cost: Free
Description:
The advancement of sequencing technology and its affordability have enabled the exploration
of gene expression in different organisms and under different conditions. Delving
into the transcriptomics via RNA-seq technique allowed us to explore genes regulation
and relations with higher resolution than ever before.
This advanced hands-on workshop aims to cover the Bioinformatics aspects of transcriptomics research using the Linux platform.
It is expected that you have familiarity in Linux basic commands and in “R”.
Participants will need to bring their own laptop to participate in the workshop. Five (5) laptops can be provided on a first-come, first-served basis
