"National workshop for PhD students, postdocs, researchers, and other employees within Swedish academia, introducing the analysis of next generation sequencing data.\r\n\r\nThe course is organized by: National Bioinformatics Infrastructure Sweden (NBIS) and National Genomics Infrastructure (NGI)\r\n\r\n#### Important dates\r\nApplication opens: July 4, 2024\r\nApplication closes: Oct 13, 2024\r\nConfirmation to accepted participants: 1 week after application deadline\r\n\r\n#### Course fee\r\nThis on-site training event costs 3000 SEK for academic participants and 15 000 SEK for non-academic participants, invoiced to the participant’s organisation. If you accept a position and do not participate (no-show) you will still be invoiced at the standard fee. Please note that NBIS cannot invoice individuals. \r\n\r\n#### Course description\r\nThis intense one-week workshop provides an introduction to the analysis of next generation sequencing data. Lectures on the theory of concepts will be paired with practical computational exercises in the Linux environment. The practical exercises will focus on data from the Illumina platform, but we will discuss other sequencing platforms and the advantages and challenges to using their data during the lectures. [See the course website here](https://uppsala.instructure.com/courses/99756).\r\n\r\n#### Course content\r\nBriefly, the workshop covers the followings major topics:\r\n- Working on the UNIX/LINUX command line\r\n- Bioinformatic/NGS data formats and QC\r\n- DNA variant calling workflow essentials\r\n- RNA sequence analysis workflow essentials\r\n\r\n#### Selection criteria\r\nDue to limited space the course can accommodate a maximum of 30 participants. If we receive more applications, participants will be selected based on several criteria. Selection criteria include correct entry requirements, motivation to attend the workshop as well as gender and geographical balance. Priority is given to PhD scholars followed by other researchers, and we will prioritise applications  from Swedish academia."
