Workshop Description

The QCB Collaboratory is hosting a PATRIC Bioinformatics Resource Center Workshop, featuring Pipelines and Analysis Tools for Bacterial Genomes and ‘Omics Data. We encourage bacterial genomic researchers, students, and bioinformaticians to attend.  Workshop content includes:

• Genome assembly, annotation, Phylogenetic tree building
• RNA-Seq and Variation service pipelines: researchers can now assemble and annotate their raw reads, do SNP analysis and then analyze their genomes using the comparative analysis suite of tools
• Virtual integration of private data with all the public data available in PATRIC
• Virulence and antibiotic resistance data and information, along with other specialty gene information
• Free, downloadable data and analysis results
• Organism summaries; pre-sorted PubMed articles; interactive phylogenetic trees; and experimental data including transcriptomics, proteomics, protein structure, and protein-protein interactions
• Numerous interactive visualizations for genome browsing, multi-genome comparisons, pathway comparisons, protein family comparisons, phylogenetic trees with coupled MSAs, gene expression comparative analysis, genome metadata, transcriptomics data, 3-D protein structures, and more
• Personal workspace for creating/comparing groups of user-selected data and storing private data
