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 […]
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.

Boyer Hall 159TITLE: TBD Hosted by Kirk Lohmueller for Bioinformatics
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 […]
QCBio Research Seminar: Rizal Hariadi, Associate Professor, Department of Physics and Biodesign Institute, Arizona State University
Boyer Hall 159TITLE: Sensing and applying multi-axial tension to biomolecules using molecular devices built from DNA. ABSTRACT: DNA nanotechnology enables the construction of molecular devices for diverse biomedical applications. By leveraging DNA's exquisite positional control, researchers can engineer sophisticated nanostructures that execute a range of tasks. In this talk, I will present 2 DNA-based devices: an amphiphilic […]
W14: Intro to Modern Statistics with R
529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United StatesThrough this seminar, attendees will walk away knowing when and how to run modern versions of traditional statistical analysis. These tests and the underlying bioinformatical lesson about resampling will be of use to most scientific disciplines. The course makes no assumptions about familiarity with traditional statistics – we will simply go through relatable experimental examples […]

Boyer Hall 159TITLE: TBD Hosted by William Hsu for Medical Informatics
W12: Intro to MATLAB
529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United StatesMATLAB is a powerful, high-level programing language for numerical computation, visualization, and application development. This workshop will start by introducing the MATLAB environment and then cover working with arrays and matrices, loops and conditional statements, writing your own functions, working with files and visualizing your data. The final day will briefly introduce utilizing MATLAB to […]
W31: Spatial Transcriptomics
529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United StatesSpatial transcriptomics is an emerging field that bridges molecular biology and anatomy. Over the last decade, a battery of assays have been developed that profile gene expression in-situ, i.e, measuring the abundances of mRNA molecules in cells and tissues while retaining information about their spatial locations. This workshop will introduce the basic concepts, major techniques, […]
