Where? Munich, Germany
Link? Website
Unlock new insights into DNA methylation and chromatin landscapes with the application of bioinformatic tools for analyzing next-generation sequencing data.
In a nutshell
- Learn the essential computing skills for NGS bioinformatics
- Understand the basis for bisulfite-seq, ChIP-seq and ATAC-seq techniques
- Use bioinformatics tools for exploring differential changes in DNA methylation
- Create diagnostic graphics and statistics to support your findings
- Integrate different layers of multi-omic data to gain insights into complex epigenomic systems
Unlock the secrets of gene regulation with next-generation sequencing in this hands-on workshop on epigenomic data analysis. Over three immersive days, you'll learn how to analyze DNA methylation data from bisulfite sequencing, interpret chromatin accessibility and histone modification signals, and integrate these layers to reveal functional regulatory landscapes. Starting from raw sequencing reads, you'll gain practical experience in data preprocessing, quality control, and visualization using command-line and R-based tools.
Designed for early-career researchers and beginners in the field of NGS data analysis, this workshop blends essential biological context with applied bioinformatics. All workshop attendees will be enabled to perform important first tasks of NGS data analysis themselves, with little or no background in computer science. Whether you're preparing to analyze your own datasets or aiming to deepen your understanding of epigenomic regulation, this course equips you with the skills and confidence to explore the regulatory genome.
