  • Register now for online PacBio Iso-Seq workshop next week

    The UC Davis Bioinformatics Core is pleased to announce that we will be continuing our remote workshops this fall, after a successful summer of seven multi-day courses!
    We’re also glad to be adding bundle pricing options for labs sending multiple registrants:

    15% off registration for groups of 3-5
    25% off registration for groups of 6-10
    custom instructional packages for groups larger than 10

    If you are interested in one of these pricing options, please contact us at [email protected] for a custom coupon code.


    PacBio Iso-Seq Workshop Online
    September 30 - October 2

    The Bioinformatics Core is excited to announce a three day workshop on Iso-Seq in partnership with PacBio! With instruction from experienced Core personnel and Iso-Seq analysis experts Dr. Liz Tseng, Principal Scientist at PacBio, and Dr. Ana Conesa, Professor at the University of Florida, this short course will provide a mixture of lectures and hands-on analysis to give participants an overview of the possibilities represented by full length transcript isoform sequencing with Iso-Seq.

    Participants will explore experimental design, cost estimation, data generation, and analysis, following Iso-Seq experiments from end to end and learning about several applications of this high quality full length RNA sequence data. Exercises will be performed with provided datasets, using command-line interaction on the Genome Center Compute Cluster.

    There are no prerequisites other than basic familiarity with genomic concepts. Some familiarity with the command-line and R is helpful. 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.



    Bioinformatics: Command Line/R Prerequisites Online
    October 5 - October 8

    Ideal for biologists preparing to launch into bioinformatics, or those looking to better understand analyses run by collaborators and core specialists, this workshop will cover the basic computational and statistical concepts needed before performing bioinformatics analysis, including:

    Access to a multi-core Linux server
    Familiarity with the command line
    Basic knowledge of how to install software
    Basic knowledge of R and statistical programming
    Basic knowledge of Statistics and model building

    The course will explore the fundamentals of successful, repeatable bioinformatics analysis: experimental data organization, basic command line and high performance computing concepts, simple software installations, using help, running applications, building basic pipelines, introduction to R programming, working with data tables and generating figures, basic statistical concepts, and statistical model building. There are no prerequisites for this workshop other than an interest in bioinformatics!

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin


    The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist on Modified Bases...

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
