Course overview:

This course will focus on population genomics analysis using Stacks version 2 software. The course will include a discussion of RAD sequencing, including the different protocols and the sequencing platforms used. We will focus on the key aspects of the molecular protocol to ensure a successful data analysis. The remainder of the course will include an introduction to UNIX followed by practice with RADseq data analysis. We will focus first on how the major Stacks algorithms work, followed by how to optimize parameters for the software. Next, the course will include two data analyses, a de novo analysis without a reference genome, and an analysis including a reference genome. We assume no bioinformatics experience.

ALL INCLUSIVE PACKAGE – Includes breakfast, lunch, refreshments and welcome dinner Monday evening. Self-catering facilities are available in the accommodation. Accommodation is approximately a 6-minute walk from the PR informatics head office. Accommodation is multiple occupancy (max 3-4 people) single sex en-suite rooms. Arrival Sunday 12th September (between 17:00 – 21:00 and departure Friday 13th September (accommodation must be vacated by 09:15).
