Dear all,

there are only a few seats left for our upcoming online course: Introduction to Genome Annotation

 

Dates: 19–22 May
Format: Online (Live sessions from 13:00 to 19:00, Berlin time)

Course website: https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/genome-annotation/

 

 

Genome annotation is a crucial component of genomics research, as the quality and biological relevance of a genome assembly depend heavily on accurate annotation. This course offers a practical and comprehensive introduction to genome annotation workflows and tools. Topics will include:

  • Sample quality requirements and sequencing platforms

  • Ab initio and de novo transcriptome assembly

  • Evidence-guided gene prediction (e.g., BRAKER, Augustus)

  • Gene model construction and evaluation

  • Addressing genome-specific challenges

This course is intended for PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and scientists working on genome annotation projects. Participants should be comfortable using the UNIX command line.

 

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

  • Set up and run an annotation pipeline for their genome of interest

  • Handle common challenges in annotation projects

  • Use key tools for gene prediction and quality assessment

Best regards,

 

Carlo
