[GenePool]

Hi, you might want to check out GenePool as a resource for supporting genomics education. It is built with a very intuitive interface that makes working with genomics fairly approachable for students and folks with little to no command-line experience. Also, the free data available in the growing genomics reference library including various SRA sequence variation projects, TCGA RNA-Seq cohorts, and GTEx RNA-Seq data that make for quite compelling projects to use for teaching. We've heard of many courses that are generating sequence variation data for the students in the class room, and GenePool is also an excellent place to work with that data. It picks up data from BAMs, VCFs, and tab-delimited text files (supporting RNA-Seq, Genome variation, exome varation, more targeted panels, as well as other assays). Please feel free to shoot me a private message if you're interested in discussing how we could work together to power up genomics and informatics education.

If you're interested in learning more, please check out GenePool's growing genomics reference library that is freely available to the community: http://www.stationxinc.com/reference-library

Cheers!
