DESCRIPTION:In this course\, we will guide you through the core technology\
 , data analysis approaches\, tools\, and resources used in RNA sequencing 
 (RNA-seq) and transcriptomics. Our goal is to support you as you build a s
 hared understanding of the field\, whether your background is in biology\,
  computer science\, or data analysis. We will introduce the fundamental co
 ncepts behind transcriptomic workflows and help you gain confidence with b
 asic command‑line analysis.\n\nTogether\, we'll explore key public data 
 repositories and outline the main methodologies that can help you begin th
 e biological interpretation of gene expression data. Throughout the course
 \, a mix of learning through lectures\, practical exercises\, and open dis
 cussions will create an environment where you can engage with the material
  from your own disciplinary perspective.\n\nAll computational work will us
 e small example data sets so that you can focus on learning the concepts a
 nd workflows. Please note that there will be no opportunity to analyse per
 sonal data during the course.\n\n**Virtual course**  \nYou will learn via 
 a mix of pre-recorded lectures\, live presentations\, and trainer Q&amp\;A
  sessions. Practical experience will be developed through group activities
  and trainer-led computational exercises. Live sessions will be delivered 
 using Zoom with additional support and asynchronous communication via Slac
 k.\n\nPre-recorded material may be provided before the course starts\; par
 ticipants will need to watch\, read\, or work through to gain the most out
  of the actual training event. In the week before the course there will be
  a brief induction session. Computational practicals will run on EMBL-EBI'
 s virtual training infrastructure\, so you will not require access to a po
 werful computer or install  software on your own machine.\n\nYou will nee
 d to be available between the hours of 09:00 – 17:30 UK time each day o
 f the course. Trainers will be available to assist\, answer questions\, an
 d provide further explanations to you during these times.
