Register for Bulk RNA-seq data analysis using CLC Genomics Workbench
This workshop teaches bulk RNA-Seq data analysis using CLC Genomics Workbench software. Upon registration, you will receive links to workshop materials that you can view on your schedule.
Target Audience: Experimental biologists seeking to analyze bulk RNA-Seq data generated through experiments or retrieved from a repository such as GEO. The software covered in the workshop operates through a user-friendly, point-and-click graphical user interface, so neither programming experience nor familiarity with the command-line interface is required.
Upon completing this class, you should be able to:
- access the CLCbio Genomics Server hosted by Pitt CRC
- import RNA-Seq FASTQ reads from a GEO dataset
- assess the quality of RNA-Seq data
- align reads to a reference genome
- estimate known gene and transcript expression
- perform differential expression analysis
- visualize data by generating PCA and heatmaps
