About Workshop

RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) has revolutionized transcriptomics by enabling researchers to study gene expression comprehensively and quantitatively. This workshop offers an in-depth introduction to RNA-Seq data analysis, particularly focusing on Differential Gene Expression (DGE) workflows using real-life datasets and open-source bioinformatics tools. Through this interactive training, participants will gain practical skills in sequence data formats, quality checks, read mapping, count normalization, and expression profiling. They will also explore advanced visualization tools such as heat maps and volcano plots, culminating with functional enrichment analysis for biological interpretation. No prior coding experience is required, but familiarity with basic molecular biology is beneficial.
