In the Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) Introduction course where you will gain a comprehensive understanding of how NGS work, how different types of NGS can answer different biological questions and how the raw data processing is in common between the different platforms with a particular focus to bulk RNA-seq and ATAC-seq.
This introduction is preparatory for our RNA-seq, ATAC-seq and variant analysis using Galaxy courses where we will go through the specific analyses after the pre-processing steps.
To participate in the course, you will need to be able to use RStudio on your computer or log into RStudio Cloud. This will enable you to complete the coding challenges and practice what you learn in the lectures.
By the end of the course, you will have a better understanding of the uses of NGS technology and how to process raw data before downstream analyses.All the example data required for the analysis is available for download and has already been processed using the NF core RNAseq and ATACseq pipelines.
