Introduction to RNA-seq using high-performance computing (HPC)

Audience Computational skills required Duration
Biologists None 3-session online workshop (~7.5 hours of trainer-led time)

Description

This repository has teaching materials for a 2-day Introduction to RNA-sequencing data analysis workshop. This workshop focuses on teaching basic computational skills to enable the effective use of an high-performance computing environment to implement an RNA-seq data analysis workflow. It includes an introduction to shell (bash) and shell scripting. In addition to running the RNA-seq workflow from FASTQ files to count data using Salmon, the workshop covers best practice guidelines for RNA-seq experimental design and data organization/management.

Note for Trainers: Please note that the schedule linked below assumes that learners will spend between 3-4 hours on reading through, and completing exercises from selected lessons between classes. The online component of the workshop focuses on more exercises and discussion/Q & A.

These materials were developed for a trainer-led workshop, but are also amenable to self-guided learning.

Learning Objectives

  1. Understand the necessity for, and use of, the command line interface (bash) and HPC for analyzing high-throughput sequencing data.
  2. Understand best practices for designing an RNA-seq experiment and analyzing the resulting data.
