7th Berlin Summer School 2023 in NGS Data Analysis [September 4-8, 2023]

Details
Veröffentlicht: Freitag, 02. Juni 2023 14:38

In a Nutshell:

- Learn the essential computing skills for NGS bioinformatics
- Understand NGS analysis algorithms (e.g. read alignment) and data formats
- Use bioinformatics tools for handling NGS data
- Perform first downstream analyses for studying genetic variation
- Compare different approaches for differential expression analysis

Scope and Topics:

The purpose of this intense one week summer course is to get a deep understanding in Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) with a special focus on bioinformatics issues. Advantages and disadvantages of current sequencing technologies and their implications on data analysis will be discovered. You will be trained on understanding NGS data formats and handling potential problems/errors therein. In the summer school we will use a real-life RNA-seq dataset from the current market leader illumina.

All students will be enabled to perform important first tasks of NGS data analysis themselves. The layout of the summer school has been adapted to the needs of beginners in the field of NGS bioinformatics and allows scientists with no or little background in computer science to get a first hands-on experience in this new and fast evolving research topic.

In the evenings there will be social events, like a conference dinner, or a guided city tour through Berlin. These are always great networking possibilities.

The systems biology of microbial infection aims to understand the interaction between hosts and pathogens by the integrative combination of experiment and theory. The focus of this symposium is on the interaction between the immune systems of humans or animals and bacterial or fungal pathogens. We welcome contributions that, for example, focus on
 
- unraveling pathogenicity mechanisms by a systems biology approach,
 
- host-microbe and microbe-microbe interactions,
 
- reconstructing cellular networks based on time series data,
 
- analysing spatio-temporal aspects of infection processes,
 
- identifying diagnostic biomarkers and potential drug targets,
 
- exploring strategies for personalized therapy.
 
The International Symposium on Systems Biology of Microbial Infection is taking place biennially since the year 2011 at the HKI-Center for Systems Biology of Infection in Jena, Germany.

In a Nutshell:
- Learn the essential computing skills for NGS bioinformatics
- Understand NGS technology, algorithms and data formats
- Use bioinformatics tools for handling sequencing data
- Perform first downstream analyses and find differentially expressed genes

Scope and Topics:
The purpose of this workshop is to get a deeper understanding in
Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) with a special focus on bioinformatics
issues. Advantages and disadvantages of current sequencing technologies
and their implications on data analysis will be discovered. The
participants will be trained on understanding their own NGS data,
finding potential problems/errors therein and finally perform their
first downstream analysis (differential gene expression). In the course
we will use a real-life RNA-seq dataset from the current market leader
illumina.

Novel challenges in the quest for orthologs [17. - 18. Sept. 2022]

Details
Veröffentlicht: Freitag, 26. August 2022 07:27

Orthologs are evolutionarily related genes in different species whose separation from the same ancestral sequence was initiated by a speciation event. The identification of orthologs is fundamental for biological sequence analysis both in an evolutionary and functional context. For the bioinformatics community, the quest for orthologs poses a rich source of challenges ranging from the development of scalable algorithms for ortholog classification to the hosting of dedicated data repositories to disseminate orthology assignments into a global community. As such, the development and improvement of orthology inference tools has to keep up with the evolution in the underlying data with respect to both quantity and quality. Some of the currently most pressing challenges are the following. The Darwin Tree of Life project alone will sequence over 70,000 eukaryotic genomes over the next several years. This data is invaluable for biodiversity genomics, but renders the development of orthology inference methods that scale to this wealth of data an urgent task. In the same way as the taxonomic breadth of sequenced organisms increases, deep orthology relationships between genes in distantly related species or between rapidly evolving sequences move into focus. Here, novel algorithms that incorporate information provided by the increasing availability of accurate protein structure predictions may help. The functional diversity and relevance of non-coding RNAs in the regulatory network of a cell, which emerged in the past decade, requires dedicated tools whose standards meet those achieved for protein coding genes. Eventually, the focus beyond cellular organisms is necessary given the spread of pathogenic viruses worldwide. Viral genes diverge quickly and often their evolutionary history is reticulated due to frequent recombination and horizontal gene transfer. Overlapping genes and polyprotein further complicate the identification of orthologous groups. This workshop aims at highlighting these novel challenges in the quest for orthologs for which innovative bioinformatics solutions are urgently needed. The workshop goal is to communicate these topics to, and to discuss possible approaches with a diverse bioinformatics community. This will significantly broaden the methodological basis from which future approaches of orthology inference can be built on and fosters the formation of new collaborations that will significantly advance the field of orthology inference.

International Symposium on Image-based Systems Biology [ 8. bis 9. September 2022]

Details
Veröffentlicht: Montag, 02. Mai 2022 08:03

Researchers from all fields are invited to communicate their results centered on Image-based Systems Biology in order to exchange novel scientific methods and to share recent achievements from image-driven research in biology. Joint studies of experiment and theory will be highly welcomed. Furthermore, demonstrations of methods for accurate segmentation and classification of regions of interest or object-tracking that can be applied for high-content and high-throughput screening are of interest, as well as computational methods for translating images into mathematical models ranging from differential equations to agent-based methods.

The International Symposium on Image-based Systems Biology has taken place biannually since 2012 at the HKI-Center for Systems Biology of Infection in Jena, Germany.
