Dear all, I wanted to bring to your attention our upcoming course on Genome Assembly and Annotation, available at: (https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/course20/ ) (only 3 remaining seats available) Dates: Online, March 18th-22nd This course offers a unique opportunity for biologists and bioinformaticians to delve into the intricacies of de novo genome assembly and annotation. Through a combination of theoretical discussions and practical examples, participants will gain valuable insights into generating high-quality annotated and curated reference genomes. Designed for researchers at all levels of expertise, from beginners to advanced users, the course covers fundamental concepts, algorithms, and workflows. We will explore various aspects of genome assembly and annotation, drawing from the Vertebrate Genomes Project assembly pipeline as a model. Hands-on exercises, utilizing both graphical interfaces and basic command line tools, will reinforce learning and skill development.
