Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex NGS made easy
Date: 2 - 6 October 2023
These series of webinars and tutorials aim at improving basic and
applied knowledge associated with next-generation sequencing (NGS)
technologies and their applications in the field of Tuberculosis (TB).
Learning objectives:
- Be able to read and interrogate a phylogeny encountered in the literature
- Calculate pairwise SNP distances between MTB samples
- Create a SNP alignment
- Familiarize yourself with the basics of Galaxy
- How can we predict drug resistance from those variants
- How do we annotate those variants
- How should we filter those variants
- Identify transmission clusters based on SNP distances
- Learn how histories work
- Learn how to create a workflow
- Learn how to extract and run a workflow
- Learn how to obtain data from external sources
- Learn how to run tools
- Learn how to share a history
- Learn how to share your work
- Learn how to upload a file
- Learn how to use a tool
- Learn how to view histories
- Learn how to view results
- Study the emergence and spread of drug resistance based on transmission analysis.
- Understand the basic concepts behind phylogenetic trees, as applied to Mycobacterium tuberculosis
