Integration between the most popular libraries has lead to the concept of a "scientific Python stack": a collection of packages which are designed to work well together. In this workshop we will see how to leverage these libraries to efficiently work with and visualise large volumes of data.</span><br style="font-size:13px"><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">DATE: Monday 10 – Friday 14 July 2017</span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">VENUE: The King's Buildings, The University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, Scotland, UK</span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">REGISTRATION DEADLINE: Monday 26 June 2017 noon</span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">CANCELLATION DEADLINE: Monday 3 July 2017 noon</span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">PLACES: 20 (first come, first served)</span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">REGISTRATION FEE: £525 (includes coffee/tea, but no lunch)</span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">INFORMATION: Bert Overduin (</span><a href="mailto:bert.overduin@ed.ac.uk" target="_blank" style="font-size:13px">bert.overduin@ed.ac.uk</a><span style="font-size:13px">), Martin Jones (</span><a href="mailto:martin@pythonforbiologists.com" target="_blank" style="font-size:13px">martin@pythonforbiologists.co<wbr>m</a><span style="font-size:13px">)</span><br style="font-size:13px"><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">FOR MORE DETAILS AND TO REGISTER: </span><a href="http://genomics.ed.ac.uk/services/data-manipulation-and-visualisation-python" target="_blank" style="font-size:13px">http://genomics.ed.ac.uk/servi<wbr>ces/data-manipulation-and-<wbr>visualisation-python</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>*************************</div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:13px">GATK BEST PRACTICES FOR VARIANT DISCOVERY</span></div><div><br></div><div>This workshop will focus on the core steps involved in calling variants with the Broad’s Genome Analysis Toolkit, using the “Best Practices” developed by the GATK team. You will learn why each step is essential to the variant discovery process, what are the operations performed on the data at each step, and how to use the GATK tools to get the most accurate and reliable results out of your dataset. In the course of this workshop, we highlight key functionalities such as the GVCF workflow for joint variant discovery in cohorts, RNAseq-specific processing, and somatic variant discovery using MuTect2. We also preview capabilities of the upcoming GATK version 4, including a new workflow for CNV discovery, and we demo<font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">nstrate the use of pipe</font><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">lining tools to assemble and execute GATK workflows.</font></span><span style="font-size:13px"><br></span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">DATE: Monday 17 - Wednesday 19 July 2017</span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">VENUE: The King's Buildings,The University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, Scotland, UK</span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">REGISTRATION DEADLINE: Monday 3 July 2017</span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">CANCELLATION DEADLINE: Monday 10 July 2017</span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">PLACES: 85 (lectures), 30 (hands-on sessions) (first come, first served)</span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">REGISTRATION FEE: £70 for the lectures, £35 for each half-day hands-on session (includes coffee/tea, but no lunch)</span><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">INFORMATION: Bert Overduin (</span><a href="mailto:bert.overduin@ed.ac.uk" target="_blank" style="font-size:13px">bert.overduin@ed.ac.uk</a><span style="font-size:13px">)</span><br style="font-size:13px"><br style="font-size:13px"><span style="font-size:13px">FOR MORE DETAILS AND TO REGISTER: </span><a href="http://genomics.ed.ac.uk/services/gatk-best-practices-variant-discovery">http://genomics.ed.ac.uk/services/gatk-best-practices-variant-discovery</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>************************</div><div><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div>Bert Overduin, PhD</div><div>TRAINING AND OUTREACH BIOINFORMATICIAN</div><div><a href="mailto:Bert.Overduin@ed.ac.uk" target="_blank">Bert.Overduin@ed.ac.uk</a></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small"><a href="http://orcid.org/0000-0002-5281-8838" target="_blank">orcid.org/0000-0002-5281-8838</a></span><br></div><div><br></div><div>EDINBURGH GENOMICS</div><div>The University of Edinburgh</div><div>Ashworth Laboratories<br></div><div>The King's Buildings</div><div>Charlotte Auerbach Road</div><div>Edinburgh EH9 3FL</div><div>Scotland, United Kingdom</div><div><br></div><div>tel. +44(0)1316507403</div><div><a href="http://genomics.ed.ac.uk" target="_blank">http://genomics.ed.ac.uk</a></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
