DESCRIPTION:Gain an introduction to the technology\, data analysis\, tools\
 , and resources used in RNA sequencing and transcriptomics. The content wi
 ll provide a broad overview of the subject area\, and introduce participan
 ts to basic analysis of transcriptomics data using the command line. It wi
 ll also highlight key public data repositories and methodologies that can 
 be used to start the biological interpretation of expression data. Topics 
 will be delivered using a mixture of lectures\, practical exercises\, and 
 open discussions. Computational work during the course will use small\, ex
 ample data-sets\; and there will be no opportunity to analyse personal dat
 a.\n\nPlease note that this course covers different topics related to bulk
  RNA-Seq data analysis. Other related techniques such as single-cell and s
 patial transcriptomics will not be covered. Nonetheless\, the overview lec
 ture will describe the potentials and limitations of the most commonly use
 d RNA-Sequencing analysis techniques and the context in which they are use
 d. If you are seeking training on single-cell please consider applying to 
 the[2025 ‘Single-cell RNA-seq analysis with Python’ virtual course](ht
 tps://www.ebi.ac.uk/training/events/single-cell-rna-seq-analysis-with-pyth
 on-2025/#vf-tabs__section--tab1)\, which will run about the same dates.  \
 n \n\n**Virtual course**\n\nParticipants will learn via a mix of pre-reco
 rded lectures\, live presentations\, and trainer Q&amp\;A sessions. Practi
 cal experience will be developed through group activities and trainer-led 
 computational exercises. Live sessions will be delivered using Zoom with a
 dditional support and asynchronous communication via Slack.\n\nPre-recorde
 d material may be provided before the course starts that participants will
  need to watch\, read\, or work through to gain the most out of the actual
  training event. In the week before the course\, there will be a brief ind
 uction session. Computational practicals will run on EMBL-EBI's virtual tr
 aining infrastructure\, meaning participants will not require access to a 
 powerful computer or install complex software on their own machines.\n\nPa
 rticipants will need to be available between the hours of 08:00 – 18:00
  GMT each day of the course. Trainers will be available to assist\, answer
  questions\, and provide further explanations during these times.
