This hands-on workshop will cover the basics of single cell RNA-Seq analysis, using the Galaxy platform. Starting from a table of gene counts we will evaluate, filter, annotate and visualise the data. We will also cover clustering, cell type identification and differential expression.

Galaxy Australia is a platform that provides a simple and user-friendly interface to bioinformatics tools. The output we will generate is suitable for further analysis within Galaxy Australia, or locally.

FAQs

What should I bring into the event?

This is an online workshop, so you will need to provide your own computer and have access to a reliable internet connection sufficient for video conferencing. A second monitor is highly recommended.

What prior experience do I need?

Participants should have a basic understanding of single cell RNA-Seq technology. Previous experience using Galaxy is helpful but not required.

Who should attend?

Life scientists planning or running single cell RNA-Seq experiments (or mining public data) who want to perform their own analyses. No bioinformatics experience required.

How can I contact the organiser with any questions?
