What’s ‘Next’ for Next-Generation Sequencing and Functional Genomics

13 May 21

The course will focus on basic technological and methodological topics related to Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies, to help you move forward with your genomics and transcriptomics projects.

Presentation

Whether genomics is a new topic for you or you are already participating in ongoing projects, lectures will provide you with the field. We will further cover a range of genomics applications currently offered by the Functional Genomics Core Facility (FGCF).

You will learn to:

Identify different NGS technologies.
Understand the specific advantages and disadvantages of each NGS technology.
Understand the requirements for sequencing and library preparation that will influence your experimental design.
Understand the type of data obtained from an NGS experiment.
Anticipate challenges and bottlenecks in your genomics/transcriptomics project.
Apply sound practices when designing experiments, analysing data, or interpreting the results.
