2019 ANGUS workshop - two week course on shotgun sequencing data analysis in the cloud.

This intensive two week summer course introduces attendees with a strong biology background to the practice of analyzing big shotgun sequencing data sets (Illumina, PacBio, and Nanopore). We introduce students to computational thinking and large-scale data analysis on UNIX platforms, and cover genome and transcriptome analysis. We also cover computational topics including R scripting, software installation with bioconda, cloud computing, and building efficient and automated workflows.

No prior programming experience is required, although bravery in the face of the unknown is necessary! A year or more of graduate school in a biological science is suggested. Faculty, postdocs, and research staff are more than welcome, as are researchers from industry. Committed undergraduates may also attend if they feel up to the challenge, particularly those who are active in relevant research.
