Epigenomic Data Analysis

Dates:

28th May- 1st June 2018

Where:

Instructors:

Dr. Federico Comoglio ( Division of Gene Regulation, Netherlands Cancer Institute)

Dr. Iros Barozzi (Imperial College London (UK))

Overview

This course will introduce researchers and technical workers to the bioinformatic analysis of large epigenomic data sets obtained using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies, with a focus on ChIP-seq, RNA-seq and DNase-seq / ATAC-seq. The course will cover the theoretical foundations of the most widely adopted algorithms and analysis pipelines, a targeted introduction to scripting in bash and R/BioConductor, and extensive hands-on tutorials using publicly available NGS data sets. At the end of this course, the students should be able to efficiently analyze their own data and identify common pitfalls of genomics data analyses.
