Structural and Functional Genome Annotation (October 24-27)
The workshop will cover basic concepts and walk through several strategies for a high-performance computing cluster. The goal is to familiarize attendees with the basic concepts and details of computational approaches for genome annotation. All code required to complete the full analysis will be provided in a public GitHub repository, and session recordings will be available to all participants after the workshop.
The workshop will take place over 4 days for three hours each day.
Dates: October 24-27(4 days)
