Next Generation Sequencing Data Analysis Workshop: October 19th -- 22nd 2011

Next Generation Sequencing Data Analysis Workshop: October 19th -- 22nd 2011

IMPORTANT: Eligible young researchers shall be given 50% rebate in the fees and additionally they will be provided free accommodation in the campus guest house. Please send your CV and letter of interest to attend the workshop to uday@labindia-gpod.com at the earliest.
A comprehensive hands-on NGS data analysis workshop organized jointly by Persistent Systems Ltd. and Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Information Technology and Biotechnology, Bharati Vidyapeeth University to provide hands-on NGS data analysis training to students and young researchers.This workshop is suitable for biologists, bioinformaticians and software developers who are completely new to- or have some experience with NGS data analysis. The aim of the workshop is to familiarize participants with characteristics of data generated by different platforms and analysis workflows in the varied areas of NGS technology applications.
The workshop will include a series of talks by eminent scientists from academia as well as industry and hands-on data analysis sessions.

Day 1 --Introduction to NGS Data: This session is aimed at providing information about data output
from different platforms and basic quality control using FASTQC.

Day 2 --Genome Assembly: In this session participants will perform assembly and annotation of a bacterial genome using open source tools.

ChIP-Seq Analysis: This data analysis session will involve basic analysis (Motif enrichment and identification) of a small ChIP-Seq dataset.

Day 3 -- RNA-Seq Analysis: This data analysis session is aimed at performing alignment, quantification and differential expression in a small RNA-Seq dataset.

Day 4 -- Genetic Variation Analysis: This analysis session is aimed at performing alignment, SNP and
detection and visualization in a small DNA-Seq data.

REGISTRATION:
The cost of the workshop is Rs. 30000/- per participant. The cost includes course material, food and transportation between the two workshop venues.
The workshop is limited to 20 participants. Participants can register for the workshop at http://biocrats.co.in/biocrat_portal/
