3 Jun 9:00 am 12:00 pmCO Summer School S2: Data PreparationThis course provides you with essential knowledge and skills to effectively prepare data for analysis. Starting with an overview of the Data Analytics pipeline and processes, the course explores various statistical and visualization techniques used in Exploratory and Descriptive Analytics to understand historical data. You will then delve into the art of Data Preparation, gaining expertise in data cleaning, handling missing values, detecting, and handling outliers, as well as transforming and engineering features. By the end of the course, you will be equipped with the necessary tools to ensure data quality and integrity, enabling you to make informed decisions and derive valuable insights from their data. Level: Introductory Length: 3 Hours Format: Lecture + Hands-on Prerequisites: Basic Python (part of the 2024 Compute Ontario Summer School) Virtual | COSS2024![]() |
3 Jun 9:00 am 12:00 pmCO Summer School S1: Introduction to Linux shell (morning session)Running programs on the supercomputers is done via the BASH shell. This course is two three hour live demos on using bash. No prior familiarity with bash is assumed. In addition to the basics of getting around, globbing, regular expressions, redirection, pipes, and scripting will be covered. A series of exercises are required to be done in order to complete the course.

4 Jun 9:00 am 12:00 pmCO Summer School S2: Bioinformatics: Analysis of RNA-sequencing dataRNA-Seq refers to high throughput sequencing methods that probes the entire transcriptomic landscape of a given tissue or sample of interest. The data acquired from such experiments can be used to explore the overall RNA profile of a sample as well as comparing samples under various conditions. While extremely powerful, RNA-Seq is susceptible to numerous experimental pitfalls and requires intimate knowledge of the experimental procedures and data analysis methods. When conducted properly RNA-Seq can reveal information about gene/transcript expression, splicing and the effects of mutations. In this session we will take a thorough look at a comprehensive RNA-Seq pipeline, from sample processing methods to final differential expression analysis. Relevant R / BioConductor packages will be introduced. We will have the opportunity to investigate numerous quality control metrics, perform genomic alignment, differential expression and pathway enrichment analysis. We will cover several “gotcha”s and common mistakes in experimental design and data analysis. Basic familiarity with R and Linux command line will be beneficial but not required. All necessary commands and parameters will be explained during the class. Participants will be offered hands-on practice in which they will use RStudio to run R/BioConductor scripts for data analysis as well as the Integrative Genomic Viewer (IGV) software to visualize genomic data on their laptops Level: Intermediate Length: 3 Hours Format: Lecture + Hands-on Prerequisites: Basic R and Linux beneficial but not required (part of the 2024 Compute Ontario Summer School) Virtual | COSS2024![]() |
