The NORBIS course Bioinformatics methods for next generation sequencing analysis will be held by Morten Beck Rye, and takes place at NTNU in Trondheim 19th – 23rd September 2016.

The course will introduce bioinformatic approaches, tools and pipelines for computational analyses of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) data. Focus will be on analysis methods for coding and non-coding RNA from RNA-seq, and transcription factors and epigenetic markers from ChIP-Seq. The course will cover strategies, methods and workflows used for analyses of such data, including mapping to reference genomes, feature extraction, and statistical analysis. In addition, the biological interpretation of output from such analyses will be presented as case studies from scientific journals.

We will keep you posted for more information.
