A Practical Workshop will be held during 7-11 May 2018, in Oeiras, hosted by the Portuguese ELIXIR Node in cooperation with the nodes involved in ELIXIR-EXCELERATE Workpackage 6 “Marine Metagenomics”.
The aim of the course is to present a complete computational pipeline for the analysis and interpretation of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) data such as exome sequencing or targeted panels that are commonly used in the clinic.
We will address the implementation of large-scale genomic sequencing in clinical practice and the recently developed computational strategies for the analysis of NGS data with a particular emphasis on the interpretation of the results, selection of biomarkers of drug response and afford opportunities to match therapies with the characteristics of the individual patient's tumour.
The Global Organisation for Bioinformatics Learning, Education and Training (GOBLET) is holding its 6th annual general meeting in Oeiras, Portugal.
