Cancer Genomics Workshop

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a massively parallel sequencing technology that offers ultra-high throughput, scalability, and speed. The technology is used to determine the order of nucleotides in entire genomes or targeted regions of DNA or RNA. RNA-Seq is an exciting and in-demand next-generation sequencing (NGS) method used for identifying genes and pathways underlying certain diseases or conditions. Cancer genomics is the study of the totality of DNA sequence and gene expression differences between tumour cells and normal host cells.

The study of cancer genomes has revealed abnormalities in genes that drive the development and growth of many types of cancer. This knowledge has improved our understanding of the biology of cancer and led to new methods of diagnosing and treating the disease.

Due to lack of trained personnel for NGS analysis, BioCode is conducting an in-person workshop in cancer genomics that will help the attendees to conduct industrial, real life analysis of cancer dataset to identify differentially expressed genes.

You don’t need any prior knowledge in order to attend this workshop. Each and everything related to NGS, RNA-Seq & cancer genomics will be taught in this workshop, followed by analysis on real life dataset. Our workshop will make sure that you learn every little thing about the theoretical and practical aspect of NGS analysis.

This workshop will include an introduction to NGS, RNA-Seq and Cancer Genomics, Data Retrieval, Quality control, Mapping with HISAT2, Quality check, Visualization, Assembly & Quantification, Differential gene expression.

Join BioCode’s cancer genomics workshop on 2nd September at 10 am PKT in Islamabad, Pakistan. This workshop will be hands-on means both the theoretical and practical aspects of NGS will be covered.

If you need any more information regarding this workshop kindly DM us and we’ll get back to you.
