    2016 Workshop on Genomics, Cesky Krumlov, Czech Republic

    We are pleased to announce that we are now accepting applications for the 6th Annual Workshop on Genomics which is being held once again in beautiful Český Krumlov, Czech Republic from 10-23 January, 2016. More information is below or can be found on our website at http://evomics.org.

    An on-line application form can be found at: http://evomics.org/registration-form...cesky-krumlov/

    2016 Workshop on Genomics, Český Krumlov, Czech Republic

    Dates: 10-23 January, 2016

    Application Deadline: 1 September, 2015 is the preferred application deadline, after which time people will be admitted to the course following application review by the admissions committee. However, later applications will certainly be considered for admittance or for placement on a waiting list.

    Registration Fee: $1800 USD. Fee includes opening reception and access to all course material, but does not include other meals or housing. Special discounted pricing has been arranged for hotels, pensions and hostels. Information regarding housing and travel will be made to applicants following acceptance.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about the Workshop and Český Krumlov can be found here: http://evomics.org/workshops/faq/
    Workshop Overview:
    The Workshop on Genomics consists of a series of lectures, demonstrations and computer laboratories that cover various aspects of genomics focusing primarily on the analysis of modern sequencing data. Faculty are chosen exclusively for their effectiveness in teaching theory and practice. The course is designed for established investigators, postdoctoral scholars, and advanced graduate students. Scientists with strong interests in the uses of modern sequence data, analytical methods, and the use of modern sequence data to study non-model organisms, variant detection and analysis, genome visualization tools and related areas are encouraged to apply for admission. Lectures and computer laboratories total ~90 hours of scheduled instruction. No programming experience is required.

    Topics to be covered include:
    - Sequencing technologies
    - Genomics study design
    - Manipulation of sequence data using the command-line and quality assessment and control techniques
    - Analyzing genomic data in the “cloud” using Amazon Web Services (AWS)
    - Assembly and alignment: basic analyses used for de novo and re-sequencing studies
    - The use of next-generation sequence data to study non-model organisms
    - RAD (Restriction site Associated DNA) sequence analysis
    - Variant detection
    - Metagenome analysis (with WGS and amplicon)
    - Transcriptome quantification and mapping for expression and gene structure elucidation
    - An introduction to using python and iPython notebook
    - Evolutionary genomics

    Co-directors: Naiara Rodríguez-Ezpeleta, Dag Ahren, Scott A. Handley, Konrad Paszkiewicz, and Karin Rengefors

    The official application deadline has passed, however, if you would like to still be considered, you can be added to our waitlist by still submitting an application.

    We regularly pull applications from our waitlist due to cancellations, so if you are interested in joining us in January please do not hesitate to apply!

    Eighteen years of genomics training workshops, 2008–2026. 200+ faculty, 1,900+ alumni, 50+ countries. Now an open archive.


    Thanks!

      Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
      by SEQadmin2



      Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

      Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating

      New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
      by SEQadmin2


      Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

      We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
