This objective of this course is to impart the fundamental knowledge and practices required to execute a project effectively. The course leverages critical concepts and processes as defined in the Project Management Institute’s Project Management Body of Knowledge Guide, which is an ANSI standard. Practical “best practices” and guides are also incorporated. At the end [....]
Members of the QIIME 2 team, lead by members of the Caporaso Lab at Northern Arizona University, will teach a five-day online workshop on bioinformatics tools for microbiome science. The workshop will include lectures covering QIIME 2 usage and theory, and interactive work with QIIME 2 to perform microbiome analysis from raw sequence data through [....]
In this introductory workshop for beginners, participants will learn how to create, read, transform, and visualize data for scientific analysis. Learners will also gain skills in applying basic computer logic to scientific applications. There are no prerequisites for this course beyond college-level algebra and statistics; however, participants should be comfortable with basic computer functions. This [....]
This introductory-level training course on basics of Bioinformatics will introduce participants to a comprehensive set of bioinformatics concepts, tools and techniques, ultimately facilitating the solution to biological problems. It will provide an overview of several important aspects of bioinformatics such as biological database searching, sequence analysis, protein structure analysis, genome assembly and annotation, building phylogenetic [....]
This workshop builds upon the principles of using R for data science by introducing intermediate concepts that will help learners advance their knowledge and use R for more complex tasks. These tasks include working with APIs and packages to access data on remote servers, iterating tasks over datasets, and writing custom functions.
