Toronto, ON October 21-22, 2024 The characterization of sequence variants in a patient’s tumour is key to individualized cancer care. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is used widely to identify genetic variants in clinical oncology samples. Clinical laboratory professionals and researchers tasked with interpreting molecular results would benefit from understanding the strengths and limitations of the chemical… Read more: Canadian Bioinformatics Workshop: Bridging Pathology and Genomics: A Practical Workshop on NGS for Pathologists and Pathology Researchers

Toronto, ON June 17-19, 2024 High-throughput sequencing of RNA libraries (RNA-seq) has become increasingly common and has become the industry standard for transcriptome profiling. When processed appropriately, RNA-seq data has the potential to provide an exceptionally richview of the transcriptome. The CBW has developed a 3-day course providing an introduction to bulk RNA-seq data analysis… Read more: Canadian Bioinformatics Workshop: RNA-seq analysis
