Bioinformatics at the CGB :: Workshops and Training

CGB routinely organizes workshops and tutorial sessions on topics useful to the IU Life Sciences community. These sessions are open to IU faculty, post-docs and graduate students at no charge. To date, we have offered workshops on PERL, R as well as Microarray Data Analysis using BASE and MeV.

We welcome suggestions about topics for future workshops. (e.g Basic Unix, Bioinformatics Tools, etc.)

Introduction to Perl

These interactive and hands-on workshops provide life scientists, with little or no PERL (or programming) experience, with sufficient training to write useful scripts. They have already been so popular that we have offered them thrice since Fall 2005.

Instructors: Rupali Patwardhan and Sumit Middha

Introduction to R/Bioconductor

This workshop introduces the participants to some of the very useful and basic capabilities of the R statistical package. The emphasis is on the functionality provided by the BioConductor Package.

Instructors: Angela Burr and Andreas Rechtsteiner

BASE and MeV

This tutorial focuses on the features of BASE Microarray Data Management System which provides a framework to store, organize and analyze microarray data. It also aims to demonstrate the utility of the MeV package to analyze microarray data.
