Workshop-08/21

We will start this workshop by answering the most important question of the researchers/students e.g. How I can start learning Bioinformatics and and data analysis with Linux system ? How to shift from windows system to linux system ? Further, we will also teach you the basics of 'Python', 'R', and data analysis with both the modules. In addition to this, we will also provide you the filtering and analysis of datasets generated by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies (e.g. RNA-Seq data, Whole Genome Sequencing, Exome Sequencing, and ChIP-Seq). Basics of Network Biology and use of Cytoscape tool for Network analysis, and a very informative training session on Protein-ligand docking by using  Auto doc vina, and Ligplus, will also be provided. We will cover basics to advanced aspects of all the topics mentioned.   

Who can participate: Students (B.Sc./B.Tech/M.Sc./M.Tech), Research Fellows (Ph.D. fellows), Researchers, Faculty, Scientists, and Company Personals.
