Current Topics in Bioinformatics workshops

This repository has teaching materials for 2-3 hour, hands-on workshops covering a variety of topics related to bioinformatics data analysis. The workshops will lead participants through performing different types of analyses using R/RStudio or Linux.

Some workshops will require a working knowledge of R or completion of the Introduction to R workshop. Other workshops will require a working knowledge of the bash scripting language or completion of the Introduction to Unix workshop.

** NOTE: Detailed information and preparation instructions for each of the workshops can be found by clicking on the workshop links in the table below.

These materials are developed for a trainer-led workshop, but also amenable to self-guided learning.
