W8: Variant Calling with GATK
529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United StatesThis workshop uses materials developed by the Broad Institute to teach Variant Discovery with GATK. Attendees with no prior experience in variant calling are recommended to review all of the materials below before coming to the workshop. This early preparation will allow a focus on the specific issues of running GATK on the UCLA hoffman2 […]

W9: Intro to Python
529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United StatesThis workshop will cover the basic concepts of Python programming. The course is supplemented with many hands-on exercises with emphasis given towards computational biology use cases.
W1: Unix command line I
529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United StatesUnix is a command-line-based platform that is a highly powerful and flexible tool for data management and analysis. First, this workshop introduces the basic concepts of UNIX operating system and shell scripting. We will explore essential hands-on skills to confidently use the command line interface on either a local (laptop) or a remote (hoffman2 cluster) […]
Frontiers in Computational Biosciences Seminar Series: Barbara Cheifet, PhD, Editor in Chief, Nature Biotechnology
Boyer 159 611 Charles E. Young Dr. E., Los Angeles, CA, United StatesTITLE: "Publishing for Impact" Hosted by Jingyi Jessica Li for Bioinformatics
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, […]
