News: Workshop: Virtual Variant Detection, January 27–29, 2026

We still have space available in our upcoming Variant Detection workshop (virtual with live instruction – Jan. 27–29). This hands-on workshop introduces the core concepts and tools used to identify and analyze genetic variants from high-throughput sequencing data.

Topics include Linux and high-performance computing (HPC) basics, high-throughput sequencing fundamentals, reference alignment and quality control, variant calling models and pipelines (GATK, Freebayes, BCFtools), and variant call filtering, comparison, and annotation. This workshop is designed for beginners—no prior bioinformatics experience required.
