Genome Assembly and Annotation Online Course *NEW* Date: 10-12 February 2025 Time: 10am-3pm Register here<https://genomics.ed.ac.uk/event/genome-assembly-and-annotation/> We’re excited to announce our upcoming new Genome Assembly and Annotation Course, taking place online from 10-12 February 2025, 10am–3pm each day (with a 1-hour lunch break). This hands-on workshop is designed to explore the latest methods and tools for genome assembly and annotation, focusing on long-read sequencing technologies like PacBio and Oxford Nanopore. Whether you're working on de novo assembly or genome annotation for prokaryotes or eukaryotes, this course will provide you with the skills and knowledge to take your research further. Course Highlights * Explore the benefits and limitations of long-read sequencing technologies. * Hands-on practice with tools for de novo genome assembly and polishing. * Integration of Hi-C sequencing data for improved genome completeness. * Learn the differences between prokaryote and eukaryote genome annotation. * Assess the contiguity, completeness, and correctness of generated genomes. Spaces are limited, so register early to secure your spot! We look forward to welcoming you to this engaging and informative course.
