Course: Making sense of genomic data: COVID-19 web-based bioinformatics

By now, you are becoming familiar with the concepts of loading up an input file into Galaxy, performing a task with that file, and saving the output of this task. …

Paulien Hogeweg and Ben Hesper described for the first time the term bioinformatics as “the study of informatics processes in biotic systems”. In a very simplistic way, bioinformatics could be …

In this tutorial, you will be using DeepVariant on the Galaxy platform for calling SNVs in a SARS-CoV-2 genomic sample followed by variant annotation using snpEff. The test dataset for …

In this video, you will be guided through the SARS-CoV-2 replication cycle. You will learn how the virus enters the cells and cause disease and details of how the virus …

In this step, you are going to learn how to import publicly available Galaxy workflows and execute them. This workflow was edited from the original workflow available on Galaxy to …

In this step, you will learn how to process your data on Galaxy using NanoPlot to assess the quality of the FASTQ files. There are some files for download if …

This is a short introduction video explaining Galaxy servers and the tools available to do the bioinformatics analysis. Did you know about Galaxy servers before this course? Did you know …

In this tutorial, you are going to learn how to access the Australian Galaxy server and upload data onto your account. If you would like to try and test this …

Bioinformatics provides tools to catalogue, analyse and manage biological research data and information, through tools like algorithms, databases and software. Accessibility to these tools is essential for the advancement of …

Over the past two decades, major advances in the molecular, cell biology and biotechnology research fields can be attributed to the pooled efforts of research teams and consortiums globally. Much …

The major threat to global public health that SARS-CoV2 presented led to an unprecedented pace of much-needed research and vaccine development. This simultaneously meant the acceleration of ethical procedures that …

The clinical spectrum of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection is wide, ranging from asymptomatic infection to severe viral pneumonia leading to death. SARS-CoV-2 is highly transmissible by droplet and indirect …

Even though there are different quality control (QC) steps followed before performing the phylogeny, there are several factors that influence the SARS-CoV-2 phylogenies and will be a bottleneck to interpreting …

Within the first year of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, almost 400,000 whole or partial severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) genomes were generated and shared openly, marking …
