	<description><![CDATA[<div><p>If you currently use a spreadsheet like Microsoft Excel for data analysis, you might be interested in taking a look at this <a href="https://districtdatalabs.silvrback.com/intro-to-r-for-microsoft-excel-users" target="_blank">tutorial on how to transition from Excel to R</a>&nbsp;by Tony Ojeda. The tutorial explains how to use R functions in place of Excel formulas, including tools like =AVERAGE and =VLOOKUP. For the most part, it uses modern R packages to keep the R code clear and concise.</p><p>You'll likely still be using Excel as a data source, though, so you'll also want to check out this <a href="http://www.milanor.net/blog/?p=779" target="_blank">guide to importing data from Excel to R</a> from MilanoR.</p></div><p>Reference http://www.r-bloggers.com/an-r-tutorial-for-microsoft-excel-users/</p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>R is a functional based language, the inputs to a function, including options, are in brackets. Note that all dat and options are separated by a comma</p><ul>
<li>Function(data, options)</li>
</ul><p>Even quit is a function</p><ul>
<li>q()</li>
</ul><p>So is help</p><blockquote><p><strong>help(read.table)</strong></p></blockquote><p>Provides the help page for the FUNCTION &lsquo;read.table&rsquo;</p><blockquote><p><strong>help.search(&ldquo;t test&rdquo;)</strong></p></blockquote><p>Searches for help pages that might relate to the phrase &lsquo;t test&rsquo;</p><p><strong>NOTE</strong>: quotes are needed for search strings, they are not needed when referring to data objects or function names.</p><p>There is a short cut for help,</p><p>? shows the help page on a function name, same as <em>help(function)</em></p><blockquote><p><strong>?read.table</strong></p></blockquote><p>?? searches for help pages on functions, same as <em>help.search(&lsquo;phrase&rsquo;)</em></p><blockquote><p><strong>??&ldquo;t test&rdquo;</strong></p></blockquote><p>Information is usually returned from a function, by default this is printed to screen</p><blockquote><p><strong>read.table(&lsquo;data.tsv&rsquo;)</strong></p></blockquote><p>This can always be stored, we call what it is stored in an &lsquo;object&rsquo;</p><p><strong>mydata </strong></p><p>here <strong>mydata</strong> is an object of type <span style="text-decoration: underline;">dataframe</span></p><p><strong>Reminder:</strong></p><ul>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>Generic Genome Browser Version 2: A Tutorial for Administrators</p>
<p>This is an extensive tutorial to take you through the main features and gotchas of configuring GBrowse as a server. This tutorial assumes that you have successfully set up Perl, GD, BioPerl and the other GBrowse dependencies. If you haven't, please see the <a href="http://gmod.org/wiki/GBrowse_2.0_HOWTO">GBrowse HOWTO</a> During most of the tutorial, we will be using the "in-memory" GBrowse database (no relational database required!) Later we will show how to set up a genome size database using the berkeleydb and MySQL adaptors.</p>

	<title><![CDATA[Linux command line exercises for NGS data processing]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>The purpose of this tutorial is to introduce students to the frequently used tools for NGS analysis as well as giving experience in writing one-liners. Copy the required files to your current directory, change directory (<code>cd</code>) to the <code>linuxTutorial</code> folder, and do all the processing inside:</p>
<pre><span>[uzi@quince-srv2 ~/]$</span> cp -r /home/opt/MScBioinformatics/linuxTutorial .
<span>[uzi@quince-srv2 ~/]$</span> cd linuxTutorial
<span>[uzi@quince-srv2 ~/linuxTutorial]$</span>
</pre>
<p>I have deliberately chosen <code>Awk</code> in the exercises as it is a language in itself and is used more often to manipulate NGS data as compared to the other command line tools such as <code>grep</code>, <code>sed</code>, <code>perl</code> etc. Furthermore, having a command on <code>awk</code> will make it easier to understand advanced tutorials such as <a href="http://userweb.eng.gla.ac.uk/umer.ijaz/bioinformatics/Illumina_workflow.html">Illumina Amplicons Processing Workflow</a>. <br><br> In <code>Linux</code>, we use a shell that is a program that takes your commands from the keyboard and gives them to the operating system. Most Linux systems utilize Bourne Again SHell (<code>bash</code>), but there are several additional shell programs on a typical Linux system such as <code>ksh</code>, <code>tcsh</code>, and <code>zsh</code>. To see which shell you are using, type</p>
<pre><span>[uzi@quince-srv2 ~/linuxTutorial]$</span> echo $SHELL

<span>/bin/bash

	<title><![CDATA[NGS Tutorial]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>These tutorials are written for hundreds of bioinformaticians trying to cope with large volume of next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. NGS technologies brought a dramatic shift in the world of sequencing. Merely five years back, genome sequencing of higher eukaryotes used to be very expensive endeavor. To get a genome of interest sequenced, hundreds of scientists had to raise funds together by writing a joint white-paper and petitioning to various government agencies. The tasks of sequencing and assembly were handled by dedicated sequencing facilities, of which only a few existed around the globe. Naturally, the capacities at those sequencing facilities were significantly constrained from high volume of requests</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://www.homolog.us/Tutorials/index.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.homolog.us/Tutorials/index.php</a></p>]]></description>
