Workshop on high-throughput sequencing data analysis with Galaxy
In-person course
This course introduces scientists to the data analysis platform Galaxy. The course is a beginner course; no programming skills are required.
Welcome to the Comprehensive Galaxy Workshop: From Introduction to Advanced Applications
Embark on a deep dive into the world of Galaxy, the leading platform for data-intensive biomedical research. This workshop is designed for researchers, students, and data analysts who wish to harness the full potential of Galaxy in various genomic studies. Whether you’re a beginner seeking to understand the basics or an intermediate user looking to refine your skills in specific applications, this workshop offers valuable insights and hands-on experiences.
Topics:
- Galaxy Introduction and Quality Control
- ChIP-seq Analysis
- RNA-seq Analysis
- Variant Calling
- Microbiome Analysis
Learning Objectives:
- To get introduced to Galaxy as a data analysis platform and the GTN training material
- To learn how to use tools and databases in Galaxy
- To be able to run different tools and workflows
Schedule
Please see the Program tab.
Registaion
The number of places in this workshop is limited. The course takes place only in person (not online, not hybrid). There are no fees for the workshop but you need to care for your accommodation, travel costs and catering by yourself.
This comprehensive workshop will increase your proficiency in using Galaxy and enhance your ability to conduct sophisticated analyses in various fields of biological research. Connect with experts and peers, gain practical skills, and take your research capabilities to the next level.
Who is this course for?
Scientists with no or little Galaxy experience who want to analyse sequencing data.Event Location
Geocoding via Nominatim, Map data from OpenStreetMap

Request TIaaS
Training Infrastructure as a Service (TIaaS) is a service that allows you to request space for your course on a server, it helps ensure courses run smoothly by separating your trainee's jobs into a separate queue. Learn more about TIaaS in our tutorial.
The following links will open a (mostly) pre-filled out TIaaS form,
Once you receive a URL from the admins, please set it as a tiaas_link in your event metadata.
