The NIH Library is pleased to present three half-day bioinformatics workshops on using cloud computing platforms.

Registration now open for the Bioinformatics and Computational Biology Symposium, September 9, 9:30 a.m.–3:00 p.m

Join us for this new class being offered by the NIH Library, NCI Cancer Research Data Commons: Cloud Computing, presented by the NIH Library in partnership with NCI.

The NIH Library is pleased to present a one-day bioinformatics workshop and several bioinformatics classes this month, all offered online.

This free service features bioinformatics consulting, training, analysis tools and databases hosted on high-performance computing workstations in the NIH Library and other open sources in NIH.

The NIH Library Bioinformatics Support Program is presenting Partek Flow: Hands-On Single Cell RNA-Seq Data Analysis on November, 6, 1:00 p.m.– 4:00 p.m.

This hands-on training will provide an introduction to ChIP sequencing data analysis. The overview will be followed by a tutorial showing the ChIP-seq analysis workflow and then preparing participants to independently run basic ChIP-seq analysis for peak calling using a “point and click” approach on a Galaxy platform.

Designed specifically for biologists, GeneSpring GX 14.9 offers an interactive computing and visualization environment that promotes investigation and enables understanding of transcriptomics, genomics, metabolomics, and proteomics data within a biological context.

The NIH Library Bioinformatics Support Program is presenting a Creating and Running Software with Singularity class on July 26, 9:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m. in the NIH Library Training Room, Building 10.

This training will provide an introduction to exome sequencing data analysis followed by tutorials showing the use of an exome analysis workflow. The session will also feature a hands-on exercise during which participants will independently run a basic exome analysis for variant detection using a “point and click” approach.
