Training

The Bioinformatics team provides ad-hoc training for biologists as well as training courses covering topics such as ChIP-seq and RNA-seq analysis, data visualisation and R/Bioconductor programming.

All course material is made publicly available and throughout (2016), the core will be running training for basic ChIP-seq and RNA-seq analysis, reproducible research in R and visualising data in genome browsers. For details on upcoming courses see our upcoming training or contact Thomas Carroll (thomas.carroll@csc.mrc.ac.uk).

As well as training in Bioinformatics methods, the Bioinformatics team can offer advice on the use of local compute resources (i.e. best practice in using R in cluster compute environment).

Daily updates to our training material can be found at http://mrccsc.github.io/training.html

Upcoming training

In 2016 we will be running training on R, reproducible research, visualising data in genome browsers and analysis of RNA-seq/ChIP-seq using R and Bioconductor
To book a place on one of these courses please contact Thomas Carroll (thomas.carroll@csc.mrc.ac.uk)
