DIY Transcriptomics

Abhi — Wed, 31 Jul 2024 01:19:26 -0500

A semester-long course covering best practices for the analysis of high-throughput sequencing data from gene expression (RNA-seq) studies, with a primary focus on empowering students to be independent in the use of lightweight and open-source software using the R programming language and the Bioconductor suite of packages. This course follows a hybrid format in which online lectures are paired with in-person labs where students participate in hands-on, live coding exercises using real ‘omic datasets. The course is focused on datasets and topics central to infectious disease research, immunology, and One-Health, but the concepts and approaches covered are applicable to any genomic study.

Bioinformatics in Thailand !

Shruti Paniwala — Wed, 28 Apr 2021 02:04:56 -0500

Our international PhD and master programs are designed for students who desire focused training in the elements of biology, computer science, and information technology needed for a successful career in the exciting new discipline of Bioinformatics & Systems Biology. Students in our program will receive comprehensive training in omics analysis, database design and management, software engineering and programming (including web-based development), simulation techniques and modeling, and data integration. Each student will apply their skills to a practical project, where they will design and implement a solution to a real-world problem under the guidance of an experienced mentor in industry or academia.

Python and BioPython Tutorial

Manshi Raghubanshi — Fri, 23 Aug 2013 06:47:40 -0500

A quickstart tutorial that allows to become familiar with the Python language. The exercises expect knowledge of basic concepts of programming. A group of 2nd year computer science students with no previous Python knowledge required 60'-90' to complete the exercises. With about 3 hours time, the exercise is suitable for non-programmers as well.

Type Hinting

Pranjali Yadav — Fri, 09 Jan 2015 22:26:13 -0600

Python creator Guido van Rossum’s proposal for static type-checking annotations is inching closer to reality, and the feature has taken on a new name: type hinting.

Back in August, van Rossum published a proposal on the Python mailing list recommending type-checking annotations as a valuable feature for the next version of Python to improve the performance of editors and IDEs, linter capabilities, standard notation, and refactoring. Van Rossum’s latest proposal, posted late last month, outlined plans to publish a Python Enhancement Proposal (PEP) in early January to put the feature now known as type hinting on track for inclusion in Python 3.5, slated for release this September.

bipype

Jit — Thu, 01 Dec 2016 08:47:38 -0600

Bipype is a very useful program, which prepare a lot of types of bioinformatics analyses. There are three input options: amplicons, WGS (whole genome sequences) and metatranscriptomic data. If amplicons are input data, then bipype does reconstruction and pairs merging. After that biodiversity is searching. There are two types of searching depending on the amplicons types (ITS or 16S). If WGS are chosen, then bipype finds the SA coordinates of the input reads and generates alignments in the SAM format given single-end reads, aligns reads to reference sequence(s). All of these analyses will be shown with Krona program, which allows to show hierarchical data with pie charts.
