This hands-on course introduces the participants to RNA-seq data analysis concepts and tools. It covers the whole workflow from quality control (FastQC and PRINSEQ) and alignment (TopHat) to quantification (HTSeq) and differential expression analysis (edgeR and DESeq2), as well as genome browser visualization. The free and user-friendly Chipster software is used in the exercises, so no previous knowledge of Unix or R is required, and the course is thus suitable for everybody. Teaching is provided by Eija Korpelainen and Maria Lehtivaara, CSC.
