On behalf of Madeleine Nivard: 26-28 August 2019: Course Next generation sequencing data analysis, LUMC, Leiden The aim of the course is to give a broad overview of the different applications of NGS with a focus on different ways to analyse the data. Presentations will discuss specifically the different choices available for data analysis, why a specific approach was selected and which alternatives are available. The course will, besides discussing and demonstrating some generally applicable tools, not include practical data analysis nor discuss in detail specific algorithms used. To get practical experience participants should, after this general introductory course, follow more specific courses (e.g. a course on RNAseq, de novo assembly, metagenomics, etc.).
