  • Variant Analysis Workshop, Aug. 21-25

    Now in its 10th year, the UC Davis Bioinformatics Core Training Program will be teaching a Variant Analysis Workshop August 21-25!

    Participants will explore experimental design, cost estimation, data generation, and processing of genomic data generated on the Illumina sequencing platform to discover and analyze variants. Topics will include mapping data to a genome, variant discovery pipelines, SNP annotation, effect prediction, structural variants, copy number variants, Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS), and Cancer datasets.

    This workshop will include a rich collection of lectures and hands-on sessions, covering both theory and tools associated with command-line variant analysis. You will use your own laptop to learn about software and protocols, create and modify workflows, and how to diagnose/treat problematic data utilizing high performance computing services. Exercises will be performed with provided datasets, using command-line interaction.

    There are no prerequisites other than familiarity with general biological concepts and an enthusiasm for learning bioinformatics data analysis. Some familiarity with the command-line and R is desirable. However, we will dedicate time on the first day to bringing everyone up-to-speed to be able to run the commands needed during this workshop.

    For more information, and to register, go to https://registration.genomecenter.ucdavis.edu/. All registration is “first-come, first-served”. There is no application process.

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
