hands-on tutorial

1: RNA-Seq reads to counts

The questions this addresses are:
- How to convert RNA-seq reads into counts?
- How to perform quality control (QC) of RNA-seq reads?
- How to do this analysis efficiently in Galaxy?

The objectives are:
- Learn how RNA-seq reads are converted into counts
- Understand QC steps that can be performed on RNA-seq reads
- Generate interactive reports to summarise QC information with MultiQC
- Use the Galaxy Rule-based Uploader to import FASTQs from URLs
- Make use of Galaxy Collections for a tidy analysis
- Create a Galaxy Workflow that converts RNA-seq reads into counts
