EMBL-ABR Training: 20180912 - Genetic Variant Detection using Galaxy Australia

TITLE: Introduction to Galaxy Australia: Finding genetic variants in bacterial sequence data SYNOPSIS: This workshop introduces attendees to Galaxy Australia and its use as a tool for genetic variant detection. A talk and demonstration is followed by a hands-on tutorial. The intended audience are researchers and students with an interest in variant detection. A knowledge of basic biology is assumed. LEARNING OUTCOMES: By the end of this training, participants will be able to use tools in Galaxy Australia to perform variant detection of microbial data.
