  Data Manipulation and Visualisation http://sbc.shef.ac.uk/training/r-introduction-online https://tess.elixir-europe.org/events/data-manipulation-and-visualisation-1f7c29d1-0f0d-4b92-986a-3ad3f71d9a71 R is a highly-regarded, free, software environment for statistical analysis, with many useful features that promote and facilitate reproducible research. In this course, we give an introduction to the R environment and explain how it can be used to import, manipulate and analyse tabular data. After the course you should feel confident to start exploring your own dataset using the materials and references provided.

• Introduction to Statistical Analysis

  No date given

  Sheffield, United Kingdom

  Introduction to Statistical Analysis http://sbc.shef.ac.uk/training/stats-introduction-2018-06-21 https://tess.elixir-europe.org/events/introduction-to-statistical-analysis This course provides a refresher on the foundations of statistical analysis. Practicals are conducted using the ‘Shiny’ package; which provides an accessible interface to the R statistical language. Note that this is not a course for learning about the R statistical language itself. If you wish to learn more about R, please see other courses at the Sheffield Bioinformatics Core.

• Introduction to Unix for Bioinformatics

  No date given

  Sheffield, United Kingdom

  Introduction to Unix for Bioinformatics http://sbc.shef.ac.uk/training/command-line-2018-05-21 https://tess.elixir-europe.org/events/introduction-to-unix-for-bioinformatics This course offers an introduction to working with Linux. We will describe the Linux environment so that participants can start to utilize command-line tools and feel comfortable using a text-based way of interacting with a computer. We will take a problem-solving approach, drawing on types of tasks commonly encountered by Linux users when processing text files Pam Liversidge Design Studio 2 - E06, Sheffield, United Kingdom Pam Liversidge Design Studio 2 - E06 Sheffield United Kingdom S1 3JD [] bioinformatics-core@sheffield.ac.uk [] [] workshops_and_courses [] []

• RNA-seq Analysis for Beginners

  No date given

  RNA-seq Analysis for Beginners http://sbc.shef.ac.uk/training/rnaseq-introduction-online https://tess.elixir-europe.org/events/rna-seq-analysis-for-beginners-f007fe63-f303-43df-925a-e4f6c3c8e247 High-throughput RNA-sequencing is now the standard technique for quantifying transcript abundance in a biological sample of interest. In this course we will describe the processes that take place once you submit a library for RNA sequencing, and what data you should expect to receive from the Bioinformatics Core. We will describe the steps involved to go from sequencing library to a list of genes that show statistically significant differences between your biological conditions of interest. Practical sessions will use the user-friendly Galaxy interface (https://usegalaxy.org/) to demonstrate tasks such as alignment, quality control and assessing differential expression. We will also showcase some web sites you can use for enrichment and pathways analysis. [] bioinformatics-core@sheffield.ac.uk [] [] workshops_and_courses [] []
