This course is co-organized by the doctoral program Staromics of the CUSO and SIB. A certain number of places will be attributed in priority to Staromics members.
In recent years, single-cell transcriptomics has become a widely used technology to study heterogeneous and dynamic biological systems. A large number of new tools and approaches have been developed for analyzing this new type of data. This course aims at discussing a selection of more advanced topics in single-cell omics data analysis, such as methods that are still being actively developed and go beyond the classical and well established analysis workflows. The typical steps in single-cell transcriptomics analysis will not be covered in this course and familiarity with them is considered a prerequisite.
This course is intended for computational biologists who are already familiar with single-cell transcriptomics analysis, who wish to learn about ongoing and future developments in the field.
At the end of the course attendees will:
Attendees should bring their own laptop. An online R / RStudio and python environment will be provided.
