Researcher's Guide to DNA Sequencing Data

This course is a follow up course to "Researcher's Guide to Fundamentals of Omic Data" which dives into further detail about DNA informatics methods! This course is for individuals who: - Have taken Researcher's Guide to Fundamentals of Omic Data - Have DNA data and don’t know what to do with it. - Want a basic overview of their DNA focused data type. - Want to find resources for processing and interpreting DNA data What this course will cover: - Fundamentals of DNA methods. - Resources you may consider looking into for your own purposes. - Questions you should ask yourself and your colleagues about your goals and experimental design. What this course will NOT cover: - Code needed to process your data. - Details about every type of experimental design. - Everything you’d need to know to make you a computational biologist. In other words we still highly encourage you to consult your informatics and computational colleagues, especially those who may have done any handling of data you are trying to learn about

• Understand goals and workflows of DNA-based methods
• Use appropriate tools and resources for DNA data analysis
• Evaluate experimental design and research objectives

• Basic familiarity with related terminology
• Willingness to engage in applied exercises or case studies
