Caceres, C Whitaker, R	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/23/21-12/08/21 Credit: 2 hours Section Title: Bioinformatics Workflow Section Info: This course is taught by the National Center for Genome Analysis Support (NCGAS) Staff and will teach the use of high performance computing (HPC) systems and bioinformatics methods. The goal is to prepare students to analyze data generated by projects in the Genomics and Eco-evolution of Multi-Scale Symbioses (GEMS) program, but non-GEMs students should find the material informative. This semester, we will cover a workflow to assemble a new bacterial genome from raw Illumina and Nanopore reads, followed by downstream analyses with the new genome. During this process, we will also cover HPC skills such as command line, data and software management, and job handlers - all important in making your analyses go smoothly.

This laboratory-based course will teach students how to design culturing strategies to target and grow microbes from natural systems. We focus as an example on microbes associated with plants (clover) and animals (bees) from the long-term ecological research site called the Kellogg Biological Research station LTER.
