RNAseq Analysis/Intro to Bioinformatics

Graduate / Professional

This course is about learning to analyze high-throughput sequencing data. This requires insight in what the data represents as well as the ability to perform basic computational analysis. We approach this by using various scripting languages to organize and modify the data for further analysis and use the High Performance Computing Cluster and R to obtain new insights. No prior experience with coding is required, but access to a laptop and an internet connection is essential. Prerequisites: BIOL 101–104, and one 200 level course, or instructor permission. W 2pm-5pm
