CS101F Linux for Biologists, Level 1
Jan. 24-26, 2012
Online at Bioinformatics.Org
http://www.bioinformatics.org/edu/ACGG
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
OBJECTIVES:
This course teaches biologists how to use the powerful Linux operating system to work with biological data.
No programming experience is needed, just a need to utilize Linux for biological research.
INSTRUCTOR:
Shailender Nagpal is a data analysis consultant in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries and specializes in the interpretation of data generated from various platforms in drug discovery, such as genomics and proteomics.
SYLLABUS:
Session 1: Fundamentals of the Linux OS - filesystem, access and basic commands; navigation of the filesystem and basic file operations - reading, writing, merging, copying and moving
Session 2: Setting permissions of files and directories; file manipulations using awk and sed, file redirection and piping, command line execution of various bioinformatics programs; exercise to demonstrate getting data and software from the internet and crunching through some real data generated from experiment; shell scripting basics and an example of a bioinformatics workflow implemented with unix shell programming
Homework assignments will involve running commands learned in the live lectures.
SCHEDULE:
The lecture is scheduled for 12:00 noon to 1:00 PM US EDT (17:00 to 18:00 GMT), Tuesday and Thursday. It will also be recorded for later viewing.
