Join us for a two-session workshop designed specifically for busy biologists looking to enhance their productivity through effective data management practices.
Dates: March 20th and 21st
This workshop is aimed at both Ph.D. students and researchers within life sciences who are already using R for bioinformatics data analyses and who would like to start using R at a more advanced level.
Application deadline: 14th April 2024
This ELIXIR Train the Trainer (TtT) course is aimed at everyone who is interested in becoming a better teacher. In particular, this training is aimed at those who want to become a experienced ELIXIR instructor, run workshops and develop training materials. You don’t currently have to be an instructor or a teacher to attend this workshop, but you will be expected to be willing and committed to becoming one and to improve your teaching techniques.
Date: 3-5 July
We are inviting you to join our unique Single-cell summer school which covers all important steps during immune cell processing, sample preparation for single-cell sequencing and data analysis. This eight days intensive hands-on school focuses on experiment design, sample selection and preparation, quality control, sequencing, understanding NGS data formats, sequence editing, read mapping, handling potential problems and finally data interpretation.
Registration deadline: 5th of May 2024.
Join us to learn about when and how to use the Harvard Dataverse repository from the Dataverse Norway team! Hybrid event!
This webinar will provide an overview of current metagenomic approaches to study the human microbiome and introduce several statistical methods that can be used to link its composition and function to different human phenotypes and populations. This webinar is suitable for those interested in studying the microbiomes of any environment or host. Although the presentation will be focused on the human microbiome, the methods and techniques discussed will also be applicable to other microbial ecosystems. No prior knowledge of bioinformatics is required, but undergraduate level knowledge of biology would be useful.

In an era when data is being produced at unprecedented speed and in many different formats, data interoperability is key to sharing and archiving data. In this 1-h course, you will learn why file format is essential to interoperability, the criteria that file formats must fulfill to be interoperable, common interoperable file formats and how to convert a file to an interoperable format.
In this module, we will introduce the most used sequencing technologies and explain their concepts. Using different datasets, we will practice quality control, alignment of reads to a reference genome and visualize the output. This course is intended for life scientists who are already dealing with NGS data and would like to be able to start analysing them.
Application deadline: 01 April 2024
This workshop focuses on experimental design and sample preparation matrix enabling junior and senior scientists to apply metabolomics approaches to a research-based context. Attendees will be guided through mass spectrometry-based experiment designs, learning about cutting-edge equipment and different technical procedures for metabolomics.
Application deadline: 30th April 2024
This webinar will discuss why data visualisation is important and what we should consider when designing it. This means what chart type to pick, how much information to include, what (and how) to highlight, etc. The webinar will have a theoretical aspect, and we will assess real-life examples.
