NCM 24 - Workshop | Oxford Nanopore Technologies
Bioinformatics Workshop
Join us at our Bioinformatics Workshop, taking place following the Nanopore Community Meeting.
Unlocking Nanopore Data Analysis with EPI2ME
Participants will learn to analyse nanopore sequencing data using the EPI2ME software in this all-day workshop. The EPI2ME desktop application streamlines bioinformatics with an intuitive graphical interface, allowing for seamless analysis locally, on your device, or in the cloud. EPI2ME's user-friendly pipelines are accessible to all, requiring no prior bioinformatics skills.
What You'll Learn:
The workshop will cover three essential workflows, followed by an interactive Q&A session:
- Human Variation: identify and analyze genomic and epigenomic variations in human DNA
- Single Cell: analyze single-cell gene expression data and create UMAP plots
- Metagenomics: analyze microbial communities and assess alpha diversity
Hands-On Experience:
Participants will engage in practical sessions with EPI2ME, learning to generate and interpret detailed reports and outputs.
Who Should Attend:
Anyone interested in analysing nanopore data with best-practice pipelines. No command line experience required.
Requirements:
- Bring your own laptop with a Chrome web browser.
Unlock the full potential of your nanopore sequencing data by joining us for this informative session.
