Introduction to bioinformatics and microbial genome assembly and annotation

December 4, 2024 and December 5, 2024
8:00 am

When: Wednesday, December 4th (8:00-5:00) and Thursday, Dec. 5th (8:00-12:00)
Location: Dartmouth College, Hanover, NH. Room: Remsen 512

Workshop Summary:

This two-day workshop is intended for anyone new to genomic and bioinformatic applications. Here we will introduce you to the command-line environment, BASH (Bourne-Again Shell), and general big-data analysis. Throughout the process we provide a guided bioinformatic tutorial working with whole-genome sequencing data. This workshop will briefly walk through the generation of next-generation sequencing data, followed by in-depth hands-on analysis including evaluation of data quality, assembly of bacterial genomes, genome annotation/assessment, visualizations, and submission of data to public repositories.
