Dear all, We are excited to announce that our upcoming Eukaryotic Genome Assembly Using PacBio and Hi-C course, scheduled for 4-8 November, has only a few seats remaining! Course website: ( https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/pacbio/ ) This course offers a deep dive into state-of-the-art methods for assembling eukaryotic genomes, which are often composed of complex repeats. With technologies like PacBio HiFi, which provides both contiguity and base accuracy, and Hi-C scaffolding, participants will learn to assemble genomes with unprecedented precision. Over five days, you'll gain both theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience, from working with raw sequencing data to producing fully assembled genomes. We will guide you through: Manipulating and analyzing raw reads Running assembly and scaffolding algorithms Assessing the quality of your final assemblies This course is designed for researchers of all levels who are eager to learn the theory and practice of de novo eukaryotic genome assembly using PacBio long reads and Hi-C data. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced user, you'll find valuable insights throughout the course. Learning Outcomes: Master PacBio HiFi and Hi-C data for de novo assembly Understand key concepts of genome assembly Gain practical experience with cutting-edge tools For the full list of our courses and workshops, please visit: ( https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/ ) Best regards, Carlo Carlo Pecoraro, Ph.D Physalia-courses DIRECTOR info@physalia-courses.org mobile: +49 17645230846 "info@physalia-courses.org" (to subscribe/unsubscribe the EvolDir send mail to golding@mcmaster.ca)
