Dear colleagues - We have a few seats left in our genomics workshops "for the uninitiated", Methods in Ecological Genomics Analysis (MEGA 2018). There are two workshops - please see short descriptions below. More details (including contacts, costs, and how to register) can be found on the workshop's website: https://ecogeno.weebly.com/ <https://ecogeno.weebly.com/> - please spread the word!
Misha Matz MEGA2018 organizer and instructor-in-chief https://ecogeno.weebly.com <https://ecogeno.weebly.com/> ------- 1. June 3-9, 2018: Population genomics using low-coverage / RAD data (ANGSD-based) Wet lab: preparation of 2bRAD libraries. Dry lab: - read processing using HPC computer cluster (Linux/bash); - population structure (PCA, ADMIXTURE, EEMS) - demographic analysis based on allele frequency spectrum (Moments, stairwayPlot) - genome scanning Throughout the workshop we will use probabilistic genotyping with ANGSD, which is designed for low-coverage data. ------- 2. June 10-16, 2018: Functional genomics and gene expression network analysis with TagSeq. Wet lab: preparation of TagSeq libraries Dry lab: - read processing using HPC computer cluster (Linux/bash); - analysis of broad-scale patterns (PCA, DAPC) - finding differentially expressed genes using generalized linear models (DESeq2) - functional summaries (GO_MWU, KOGMWU) - gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) ------- Mikhail V.
