Bulk RNAseq - Bioinformatics Resource Center Learning Series 2024/2025

The Bioinformatics Resource Center invites you to the following event as a part of our bioinformatics learning series.
 
Topic:     Bulk RNAseq
Date:      05/06/25 & 05/07/25
Time:      9:30am-4:30 pm,
Location: Weiss 305

Bulk RNAseq remains the most straightforward and cost-effective method to assay gene expression in a population of cells. It is also a great entry point for bioinformatics analysis as a many of the core concepts extend to more complex genomic analysis i.e. scRNAseq and ATACseq.

By the end of these sessions participants will be able perform a complete bulk RNAseq workflow including QC, mapping, differential analysis, and gene set analysis. We will also cover more advanced topics such as what to do with batch issues or how to find differential transcript usage.
These are in-person training sessions. Sessions will be a mixture of presentations and live coding. Participants are encouraged to code along with the instructor. 

 
We will limit the number of registrants and there will be a charge of $200 per participant.

FAQs


Is this a credited course for Graduate Students?
No. There is a Graduate School course which overlaps with the material covered in this session. Reach out to the Graduate School if you are interested.
 
I have registered. What now?
After registration, you will receive a confirmation email. We will follow up closer to the course date with additional details about the room and how to set up your computer before these sessions.
 
I have no programming experience. Is this appropriate for me? 
No. Though we will help you get set up, we will be working on plotting and not the basics of R. You could review our Intro to R course material beforehand. 
 
When will you cover other topics?
We have many other sessions currently planned. Check our website for a full list of our courses.
