About the event

What is the course about?
Analysis of Small RNA data produced from High Throughput Sequencing experiments on both plant and animal samples.

What will I Learn?
Initial preparation of small RNA data including quality control and normalisation of samples, searching for miRNA sequences and their respective targets, detection of differentially expressed sequences and building sRNA target interaction network diagrams. Finally, discussions will take place on experiment design and how this can impact overall analysis strategies.

Course Prerequisites
Biological or Computer science (computational biology) degree and either completed or in process of completion of post graduate study in a related discipline.

Target Audience
Early career bioinformatics post doc, bioinformatics/computational biology PhD students, biology post doc/PhD students with an interest in bioinformatic analysis.
