Does anyone know/would be willing to give me a guide on how to do ChIP-Seq data analysis?

Hello everyone!

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post but I'm a PhD student who is completely new to bioinformatics and I have a lot of ChIP-Seq data to analyse. Unfortunately I'm pretty much on my own with this as my institution does not have a bioinformatician. Does anyone have a guide on what I need to do to analyse this or would be willing to provide me with a guide on how to analyse this? I'm really stuck and not sure where to begin.

Thank you!

I'd recommend looking at the methods section of published papers. Many good papers will present reproducible code or in-depth description of pipelines on how to reproduce their ChIP-Seq analysis.

Check the Bioconductor package csaw and previous threads on that matter to get a background. What is the question you aim to answer? Are you familiar with R? If not then the Galaxy platform might be a good place to start. https://usegalaxy.org/
