Metagenomics bioinformatics at MGnify

Learn about the tools, processes, and analysis approaches used by MGnify in the field of genome-resolved metagenomics. This course will cover the use of publicly available resources to manage, share, analyse, and interpret metagenomics data, focussing primarily on the assembly-based approaches used in MGnify analysis.

  • Dates: 9 – 13 October 2023
  • Location: EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute | Hinxton, UK
  • Course fee: £750.00 (inclusive of accommodation and catering)
  • Application deadline: 25 June 2023

Systems biology: from large datasets to biological insight

This course covers the use of computational tools to extract biological insight from omics datasets. The content will explore a range of approaches – ranging from network inference and data integration to machine learning and logic modelling – that can be used to extract biological insights from varied data types. 

  • Dates: 23 – 27 October 2023
  • Location: EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute | Hinxton, UK
  • Course fee: £825.00 (inclusive of accommodation and catering)
  • Application deadline: 9 July 2023

    Managing a bioinformatics core facility

    This knowledge exchange workshop is an opportunity for managers of bioinformatics core facilities to learn from EMBL-EBI’s service teams, and from each other. These facilities play an essential role in enabling research in the molecular life sciences.

    • Dates: 7 – 9 November 2023
    • Location: EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute | Hinxton, UK
    • Course fee: £300.00 (inclusive of accommodation and catering)
    • Application deadline: 7 August 2023

    Genome bioinformatics: from short- to long-read sequencing

    This course will provide insights and training into how biological knowledge can be derived from genomics experiments and explain different approaches in analysing such data. The main focus will be on introducing sequence informatics, re-sequencing, differences between short- and long-read sequencing, and variant calling during the analysis of higher-eukaryotes, with an emphasis on human genetic research.

    • Dates: 20 – 24 November 2023
    • Location: EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute | Hinxton, UK
    • Course fee: £825.00 (inclusive of accommodation and catering)
    • Application deadline: 7 August 2023
