The Graduate Research Academy RNA Biology organizes a method course for PhD students with the aim to provide the participants with an introduction to the current state of RNA sequencing data analyses. Methods and applications will be presented by internationally renowned guest speakers in the mornings and hands-on training on the latest computational approaches will follow in the afternoons. In addition to the scientific excellence of the invited speakers the practical course builds on a strong local methodological expertise of the bioinformatics research field.

 

The course was developed for PhD students with a background in biology and related fields. Preference will be given to PhD students who are applying or planning to apply high throughput sequencing technologies and bioinformatics methods in their research.
