NGS - Quality control, Alignment, Visualisation - Bern, Switzerland
Usage of NGS is increasing in several biological fields due to a very rapid decrease in cost. However, it often results in hundreds of Gbs of data making the downstream analysis very challenging and requires bioinformatics skills. In this module, the most used sequencing technologies will be introduced and their decryption concepts explained. The course will take place from February 9 to 10, 2017 in Bern and is intended for life scientists who are already dealing with NGS data or willing to efficiently use publicly available NGS data, and would like to be able to start analysing them.
