About Workshop:

The Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) Data Analysis workshop is designed to provide hands-on training on various bioinformatics tools and techniques for analyzing large-scale genomic data generated by next-generation sequencing technologies.

Aim: The workshop also aims to provide participants with advanced knowledge and skills in NGS data analysis, including transcriptome analysis, epigenetic analysis, metagenomics, and de novo assembly. The ultimate goal of the workshop is to enable participants to apply these techniques to solve complex research questions and make meaningful scientific discoveries in the field of genomics.

Workshop Objectives:

  1. To provide participants with a solid understanding of the principles and methods used in NGS data analysis, including quality control, read alignment, variant calling, and annotation.
  2. To equip participants with advanced knowledge and skills in NGS data analysis, including transcriptome analysis, epigenetic analysis, metagenomics, and de novo assembly.
  3. To enable participants to apply these techniques to solve complex research questions and make meaningful scientific discoveries in the field of genomics.
  4. To provide participants with hands-on experience in working with real-world datasets and using popular bioinformatics tools and pipelines for NGS data analysis.
  5. To foster collaboration and networking among participants and instructors, providing valuable insights and feedback.
  6. To prepare participants for a range of careers in genomics research and bioinformatics, including academia, industry, and government.
  7. To enable participants to think critically and solve complex problems related to NGS data analysis, preparing them to apply these skills in real-world research settings.
