RNA sequencing in a nutshell ­- Perspectives and applications in marine biology

Abstract

Course dates 26-28 June 2017The advancement of next generation sequencing has moved biology science toward the post-genomics era. This course will provide the participants with the initial foundation for simple data analysis methodologies in RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Lectures will give insight into how biological knowledge can be generated from RNA-Seq and also hands-on training on the latest analytical approaches. This course's target audience is researchers and early stage PhD students in the field of marine biology and aquaculture with little to no knowledge of RNA-Seq technology but planning to explore (and apply) high throughput sequencing technologies and bioinformatics methods in their researchPeer Reviewe
