DISC Single-cell `Omics Workshop: Introduction to Single-cell RNA-seq Bioinformatics Part II
Date: 11/2 2-4 pm
Location: Boston Medical Campus or via zoom
The Data Intensive Studies Center is hosting a three part event featuring a seminar and workshop focused on Single-cell `Omics. This is the second part of a two-part hybrid workshop in which we will continue our single-cell RNA sequencing. We will cover common computational algorithms for cell-type identification and differential expression as well as give participants hands on experience in analyzing single-cell RNA sequencing data with open source bioinformatics tools.
Workshop Format:
- 2 - 3 pm : Introduction to cell-type identification and differential expression
- 3 - 4 pm: Hands on workshop using the Tufts High Performance Compute Cluster
Prerequisites:
Participants will need a Tufts High Performance Compute (HPC) Cluster account and basic R programming experience for the hands-on analysis portion of the worksop.
-
Registrants will be automatically signed up for an HPC account. You will receive information by email on how to log on to the HPC cluster. Registration will close one week before the workshop to allow for the creation of these accounts.
-
Introductions to R/Rstudio on the HPC are available from the TTS Research Technology: https://it.tufts.edu/high-performance-computing/hpc-tutorials
Questions about the workshop can be directed to Rebecca.Batorsky@tufts.edu
Notes: Attendees should please register separately for each event and specify if they will attend online or in-person
