Dear all, registrations are now open for the 5th edition of the online course:Genome Assembly using Pacbio data! Dates:November 4th-8th Course website: ( https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/pacbio/ ) This course will introduce the audience to a specter of methods that are present in a usual assembly workflow, starting from raw data and finishing with a fully assembled genome. We will see how to manipulate raw reads, analyse their quality, how to run different assembly algorithms, how run Hi-C scaffolding algorithms, and how to analyse assembly quality. Structured over five days, this course consists of both theoretical and practical aspects which are intertwined through each day. The presented theoretical foundation will be applied to small eukaryotic datasets. This course is intended for researchers interested in learning the theory and practice of how to perform de novo eukaryotic genome assembly using Pacific Biosciences Long Reads and Hi-C data. Both beginners and more advanced users will find useful information in this course.
