‘Bioinformatics for geneticists and biologists (BIGB02)"
Delivered by Dr. Nic Blouin and Dr Ian Misner
http://www.prstatistics.com/course/bioinformatics-for-geneti
cists-and-biologists-bigb02/
This course will run from 3rd – 7th July 2017 at SCENE Field Station, Loch
Lomond, Glasgow
OVERVIEW The handling of large datasets has become intractable without some
level of bioinformatic literacy. Many biologists find that there is a steep
learning curve to develop the confidence required to explore their genomics
datasets effectively. This bioinformatics short course includes a rich
collection of hands-on instruction and lectures specifically intended to
help novice users become comfortable with a range of tools currently used
to analyse next-generation data.
INTENDED AUDIENCE The course is aimed at anyone interested in learning
bioinformatics tools needed for handling large genomic datasets.
Course content is as follows
Monday 3rd – Classes from 09:00 to 17:00 Module 1: Linux. Linux is taught
on the first day, this takes the entire day. Once you get through this
portion you will be on your way to completing your own NGS analysis. We
have created a workbook for this portion of the course. This is a
step-by-step, or in the case, command-by-command, Linux guide. We complete
each command as a class and discuss and review issues along the way.
Tuesday 4th – Classes from 09:00 to 17:00 Module 2: RNAseq. We will cover
two of the more popular tools in this workshop, The Tuxedo package &
Trinity. Outcomes; Confidence to design effective RNAseq experiments.
Knowledge of NGS sequencing platforms and their differing applications,
ability to analyze Illumina data for quality and contamination. Proficiency
to implement the Tuxedo package to analyze an RNAseq dataset.Create
publication ready graphics with cummeRbund and EdgeR.
Wednesday 5th – Classes from 09:00 to 17:00 Module 3: Assembly. Whether you
have a reference genome or are working with de novo samples there are some
basic tools and practices that we cover to help assist you in your genome
project. In this module we will cover the basic metrics you should review
when doing assembly as well as best practices to consider in your own
project. Outcomes; Take raw reads through a complete assembly process.
Working knowledge of different assembly issues/challenges. The effect of
assembly settings on assembly outcomes.
Thursday 6th – Classes from 09:00 to 17:00 Module 4: Annotation. We will
use MAKER and Blast2GO and annotate the genome we assembled in the assembly
module. Outcomes; Understand the differences between functional and
structural annotations. Train MAKER to improve structural annotations.
Understand how MAKER improves with more evidence and training; visualize
structural annotations. Apply functional annotations with Blast2GO.
Friday 7th – Classes from 09:00 to 16:00 Module 5: Python. Why Python? In
truth it doesn’t matter what coding language you learn but you should learn
one. Python has a very straightforward syntax that is easy to understand.In
this module we will utilise the clearly explained training examples from
Python for Biologists. Outcomes; Understand Python language syntax. Create
scripts to answer biological problems & parse and analyse BLAST outputs
using custom Python code.
