Bioinformatics and Genomics unit @ Molecular Biotecnology Center, Torino 
(Italy) is pleased to announce the 3rd edition of the Introductory 
hands-on course on RNAseq (25-27 March 2014).

This course is organized by B&Gu <http://www.bioinformatica.unito.it/> 
with guest speakers from Illumina <http://www.illumina.com/>and 
Singapore Immunology Network 
<http://www.bioinformatica.unito.it/%28http://www.sign.a-star.edu.sg/index.php?option=com_research&task=pi_details_profile&pi_id=28&Itemid=71%29>. 
The course is suitable for biologists who are new to RNA-seq technology. 
Additionally, if you have analyzed gene expression data from microarrays 
and would now like to do projects using RNA-seq technology, then this 
workshop will enable you to gather information on the critical issue on 
RNA-seq from sample prep to data analysis.

The course is based on the use of Bioconductor 
<http://www.bioconductor.org> open-source software. However, R 
<http://www.r-project.org> coding skill is not required since all the 
analyses are done using oneChannelGUI 
<http://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/oneChannelGUI.html>, 
a graphical interface to Bioconductor tools, designed for life 
scientists who are not familiar with R language.

Knowledge of statistics is not necessary prior to attending the course.

Further course information, agenda and logistics can be found in the 
course booklet <http://www.bioinformatica.unito.it/RNAseq.pdf>.
