Dear all, 

We are excited to announce our upcoming online course,
Comparative Genomics, taking place from April 7-11. This course will
provide a comprehensive introduction to structural variations (SVs),
single nucleotide variants (SNVs)  and comparative genomics, covering
key analysis workflows from genome assembly and variant identification
to assessing their evolutionary impact.

Course website: (
https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/course34/ )

Through a mix of lectures and hands-on exercises, participants will gain
practical experience with state-of-the-art tools for genome comparison,
SVs and SNVs detection, and annotation.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

Identification of SNPs and SVs using de novo genome assembly and
read mapping strategies Assessment of strengths and weaknesses of the
different DNA sequencing technologies, Illumina, Pacific Bioscience,
Oxford Nanopore, for the detection of variations Strengths and pitfalls
of de novo assembly and mapping approaches for comparative genomics Hands
on experience of state of the art methods to compare multiple genomes
Annotation of variations and comparative genomics analysis Familiarity
with biological sequence analysis in an evolutionary context
