W2: Using NGS Analysis Tools
529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United StatesHigh-throughput sequencing technology involves a number of concepts and techniques that shape a project before application-specific processes are utilized. First, this workshop introduces the more “universal” aspects of high-throughput sequence analysis—from experimental design to sequencing and alignment methods. Next, this workshop covers common file formats for sequence data and limitations of sequencing technologies. We will […]
W18: Advanced Python
529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United StatesThis workshop will cover some more advanced topics in python including an overview of object-oriented python (this will not be an in-depth course on object-oriented programming), use of the numpy and pandas libraries (python libraries for efficient handling of large numeric and heterogenous datasets, and matplotlib for plotting results. At the end of this workshop, […]
Frontiers in Computational Biosciences Seminar Series: Xuebing Wu, PhD, Assistant Professor of Medical Sciences – Columbia University
Boyer Hall 159TITLE: "Illuminating the Twilight Zone: The Noncoding Genome Lost in Translation"
W17: Machine Learning with Python
529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United StatesThis workshop will cover the basic principles involved in the applications mentioned above, such as pattern recognition, linear and non-linear regression and cluster analysis. The workshop will be oriented towards hands-on activities, starting from the basics of how to load and prepare biological datasets in a Python environment.
W16: Library Prep for NGS
529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United StatesThis workshop will cover the basis of Next-Gen Sequencing Library Preparation for Illumina Sequencers. Different Library Preparation Techniques (DNA-seq, ChIP-seq, RNA-seq, Methyl-seq) are explained the first and second day in class. The third day, Quality Control steps of the starting input material and final libraries are performed in the Lab (TapeStation). Purification from Primer Dimers […]
Frontiers in Computational Biosciences Seminar Series: Justin Sonnenburg, PhD, Alex and Susie Algard Endowed Professor, Microbiology & Immunology – Stanford University
Boyer Hall 159TITLE: "The Predicament of the Industrialized Gut Microbiome"
W3: Intro to R and Data Visualization
529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United StatesR (www.r-project.org) is a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics. First, this workshop introduces basic concepts, syntax, and usage in R programming, statistical analysis, and visualization techniques. We will conduct hands-on tutorials throughout the session, giving attendees a chance to see R in action. This course is a pre-requisite for several other Collaboratory […]
W37: Applications of Large Language Models
529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United StatesThis 3-day interactive workshop introduces the overarching principles guiding generative modeling and specifically Large-Scale Language Models (LLM), their application in Python for inference, and specific use-cases in Genomics. Experience with Python is necessary, and basic knowledge about ML workflows is preferred. At the end of this workshop, you WILL be comfortable with loading, inferencing and […]
