Bioinformatics workshop series: Intro to bulk RNA-seq data analysis: from experimental design to pathway analysis
GENERAL DESCRIPTION: This workshop series offers an introduction to bulk RNA-seq data analysis, guiding participants through each step, from library preparation to gene set enrichment analysis. The series is composed of 8 sessions (see table below). The sessions will be led by field experts from the Yale Centers for Genomic Analysis (YCGA), Computational Research (YCRC) and Cushing/Whitney Medical Library Bioinformatics Support Hub to better connect you with bioinformatics services available at Yale.
We have structured this series in such a manner as to provide practical skills in experimental design, data processing, and functional analysis. The series is ideal for those new to the field of transcriptomics or those wanting to start performing their own analysis.
Date: Every Tuesday from February 6 until March 26
Time: from 10am-12pm
Requirements: No previous command line experience required.
Seating Information: For registered participants, seating operates on a first-come, first-served basis. Please ensure timely arrival to secure your seat.
*Registrations for March sessions will open at the end of February.
