Upcoming events and training

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

This introductory level course is intended for people with a biological background but with no previous programming experience. The course introduces basic programming concepts with plenty of opportunity to practice writing code and work on your own data.

This Image Processing carpentry workshop uses Python and skimage to allow researchers to do fundamental image processing as part of their analyses. A working knowledge of Python and some previous exposure to the Bash shell is required.

This Advanced level workshop is ideal for researchers and technical workers with a background in biology and a basic knowledge of Python, to develop bigger or more complicated programs and increase skills and knowledge about the language, including object-oriented approaches to programming.

In this in-person workshop, learn how to extract DNA from metagenomic samples,. prepare libraries, carry out nanopore sequencing and analyse data.

This 4-day workshop provides a thorough overview of single-cell data analysis, aimed at researchers planning a single-cell project.

This workshop is ideal for researchers and technical workers with a background in biology and a basic knowledge of Python, to work with large, complex datasets, mine them for biological insights, and create visualizations to display the results.

Returning in 2024, our 3-day virtual course will provide an overview of eukaryotic genome annotation approaches. Registration opens September 2023.
