Tackling global challenges through life science research.

Software Carpentry Virtual Workshop 2022

Our goal is to help scientists become more productive by teaching them basic computing skills of program design, version control, testing and task automation.

Data Carpentry Virtual Workshop 2022

Data Carpentry workshops are for any researcher who has data they want to analyze, with no prior computational experience required.

Microbial Community Analysis Workshop 2022

Microbiome analysis going from samples, to sequencing, to numerical ecology analysis

Genome Annotation Workshop 2022

This 3-day course will help to provide scientists with an overview of eukaryotic genome annotation approaches, covering advances in Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies, transcriptome assembly, best practice guidance for building gene models utilising short and long read sequencing data or cross species proteins, how to integrate and assess different gene models and create a publication/release ready gene set.
