  • Metagenomics Workshop at Harvard

    In response to the number one training need identified by the Harvard University community, we will be sponsoring a week-long workshop focused exclusively on the analysis of metagenomic data. This intensive, hands-on course will feature morning and afternoon sessions taught by expert faculty and technical assistants from the Broad, Ragon Institute, Harvard School of Public Health, Stanford University and Washington University. All participants will acquire fundamental computational skills, appropriate study design, data interpretation, and overall literacy in bioinformatics.

    When: Monday, September 14 - Friday, September 18 Morning Sessions 9:00 - 12:00 | Afternoon Sessions 2:00 - 5:00

    Where: Joseph B. Martin Conference Center Harvard Medical School 77 Avenue Louis Pasteur Boston, MA 02115

    Fee: There is a $300 registration fee to offset the costs of providing this 5 day workshop. Breakfast, lunch, and access to Amazon Web Services cloud infrastructure are included. A networking reception will be held for all participants who complete the workshop.

    Registration Link: Please go to Harvard's secure web portal to register (space is limited) http://www.events.harvard.edu/profil...=0x2576984ac4&

    Distinguished Faculty:

    Mike Zody, New York Genome Center
    Konrad Paskiewicz, Exeter University
    Scott Handley, Washington University School of Medicine
    Yoshiki Vazquez Baeza, UCSD
    John Chase, Northern Arizona University
    Paul J. McMurdie, Stanford University
    Eric Franzosa and Galeb Abu-Ali, Harvard School of Public Health

    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...

    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...
