As Next-Generation Sequencing technologies are becoming faster and less expensive, RNA-seq is now the primary assay of choice for researchers investigating the abundance and diversity of RNA transcripts. Analysis of the large-scale data sets generated by a typical RNA-seq experiment is challenging as it demands access to powerful computers and researcher training to run sophisticated bioinformatics software packages. This workshop will teach how to analyze sample RNA-seq data using <a href=\"http:\/\/hsls.libguides.com\/molbio\/clcgenomics\">CLCbio Genomics Workbench<\/a> software and the CLCbio Genomics Server installed at the <a href=\"http:\/\/core.sam.pitt.edu\/node\/85\">Pitt FRANK Cluster<\/a>.
