Preliminary Course Date: April 5-8, 2011, Breda (NL) Last update: 15-07-2010
This course is organised in collaboration with Dr. J.T. den Dunnen, Leiden Genome Technology Center, Human Genetics, LUMC, Leiden
Aim
of the course:
DNA sequencing technologies are currently developing at an incredible
speed and new applications are presented monthly, incl. DNA/RNA profiling,
ChIP-seq, re-sequencing, de novo genome sequencing and metagenomics. The
aim of this course is to introduce next generation sequencing technologies,
highlight different applications of these new technologies, and show ways
to analyse data.
Participants:
This
course has been developed for technicians and PhD students who are interested
in, planning, or already working with next-generation sequencing. We welcome
researchers from both the genomics and bioinformatics fields. Currently
available technologies, applications, as well as hardware and software solutions
will be presented and discussed.
Course structure:
We offer a three-day short-course consisting of a series of lectures on
the technologies and applications of next generation sequencing and "hands-on"
data analysis practicals. Furthermore we offer an additional course day
for those partcipants who would like to get more skills in Linux based GAPSS
data analysis pipelines. All participants will receive a practical manual
containing all used protocols.
