Dear all, We are pleased to announce our upcoming online course: Introduction to Genome Annotation, scheduled for 19-22 May. Course website: ( https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/genome-annotation/ ) This course will provide an in-depth, hands-on introduction to genome annotation strategies, covering: Data quality assessment and sequencing technologies Ab initio and de novo transcriptome assembly (short and long-read data) Evidence-guided gene prediction (including BRAKER/Augustus) Building and refining gene models Visualizing and evaluating annotation quality This course is designed for PhD students, postdocs, and researchers working on genome assembly projects and looking to improve their annotation skills. Basic knowledge of the command line (Unix Shell) is essential. By the end of this course, you will: Understand core genome annotation strategies and technologies Develop practical skills to start annotating your genome of interest Tackle genome-specific challenges and improve annotation accuracy For the full list of our courses and workshops, please visit: ( https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/genome-annotation/ ) Best regards, Carlo Carlo Pecoraro, Ph.D Physalia-courses DIRECTOR info@physalia-courses.org mobile: +49 17645230846 ( https://www.linkedin.com/in/physalia-courses-a64418127/ ) "info@physalia-courses.org" (to subscribe/unsubscribe the EvolDir send mail to golding@mcmaster.ca)
