Current: Summer Semester 2021
Author: W. Zac Stephens
This workshop is geared towards learning basic bioinformatic skills on the Linux command-line and R with RStudio. The objective is not necessarily to teach specific analyses, but to get biologists with no previous coding experience some exposure and working understanding of basic command-line skills so that they can continue learning by doing with their own datasets, and better take advantage of the many online tutorials that go through specific types of analyses.
We use the OnDemand interface at the University of Utah's Center for High-Performance Computing throughout because it provides a common environemnt for all users, and also because we will extensively discuss CHPC's usage for high-throughput sequencing experiments in particular.
Here I provide detailed workthroughs from each workshop day as individual pages. Each served as the basis for the slides from each day, and have more written explanation so that they can hopefully be worked through alone. I will upload them before each class and then, likely, update them at the end of each day according to how far we get. The idea is that only the time during the workshop is needed, but if one can't make it to a specific class, these can be used to workthrough the day's lesson on their own and keep up.
