General Information

This Genomics Data Carpentry workshop is for learning how to manage and analyze genomic data. This hands-on workshop requires no prior computational experience and teaches basic concepts, skills and tools for working more effectively with genomic data.

We will cover data and project organization, using cloud computing and the command line, running bioinformatics pipelines at the command line, and data analysis and visualization with R. Participants should bring their laptops and plan to participate actively. By the end of the workshop learners should be able to more effectively manage and analyze data and be able to apply the tools and approaches directly to their ongoing research
