Course/Module description:
During the course we will learn to analyze deep sequencing data of RNA and DNA with R programing. We will learn to filter good quality data, to map to the desired genome, preform statistical analysis and provide annotations to the obtained genes. In addition we will learn to use basic commands in Linux and learn to use important tools through the terminal.

Course/Module aims:

Learning outcomes - On successful completion of this module, students should be able to:
• Analyze RNA-seq data
• Analyze ChIP-seq data
• Analyze ATAC-seq data
• Analize Bisulfite sequencing (BS-Seq) data.
• Analyze HiC data
• Analyze genomic data using R.
• Work on a Linux cluster
• Retrieve data from huge datasets (like ENCODE) and integrate it with their results.

Attendance requirements(%):
Mendatory attendance
