Hands-on computational genomics course in Berlin

Berlin Institute for Medical Systems Biology is organizing a computational genomics course and R programming will be used for most practical sessions. The course will cover basic statistics, programming and basic concepts in next-generation sequencing as well as it is applications such as RNA-seq and ChIP-seq. There will be practical sessions every day. The course will last 7 days and will be taught at MDC-Berlin campus between 18-24 October 2015.

Course Modules

The course modules are as follows. Almost all modules have practical sessions and participants will have a chance to directly apply what they learned.
- Introduction to R and Bioconductor
- Statistics and Exploratory Data analysis
- Introduction to Next-gen sequencing
- Applications of computational genomics
- RNA-seq analysis
- ChIP-seq analysis
- Data integration and visualization
