Bioinformatics: Analysis of DNA Methylation using Sequencing

BeginnersPrerequisites

• This course will cover all aspects of The analysis of DNA Methylation using Sequencing. It will cover the primary analysis, mapping and Quality Control (QC) of BS-Seq data and will talk about common pitfalls and complications. It will then cover exploratory analysis of Methylation looking at different methods of Quantitation' and a variety of ways of looking more widely at the distribution of Methylation over the genome. Finally the course will look at statistical methods to predict differential Methylation.
• The course will be comprised of a mixture of theoretical lectures and practicals covering a range of different software packages.
• By the end of the course students should be able to perform an analysis of Methylation Data all the way from raw sequencing to the selection of interesting targets.
• Further information, including a Timetable, will soon be available.
