Bangladesh Society of Microbiologists (BSM) is organizing a series of online workshops on Next Generation Sequencing.  Anyone interested can join the workshop. The workshop will be conducted by Mr Shaminur Rahman, a Graduate from Department of Microbiology, University of Dhaka and currently working in the expert pool of COVID 19 laboratory management.

Part 1 of is workshop series will focus on Mutational analysis and visualization, using COVID 19 genome as an example. the lectures will cover the followings-

  •  Introduction to COVID-19 genome repository
  •  Introduction with Linux (Ubuntu) and Anaconda
  •  Variant analysis through python and bio-python language
  •  Insertion and deletion analysis
  •  Data visualization through R (R and Rstudio)
  •  Evidence confirmation through NGS technology

This workshop will be conducted in 5 days, from 27th March, 2021 to 31st March, 2021. Each lecture will be for 1.5hr, starting at 7.30 PM and ending at 9PM. The topic that each lecture will discuss are as following-

Lecture-1: Introduction to NGS technology
Lecture-2: Introduction to Linux (Ubuntu) and Anaconda environment set up
Lecture-3: Mutation analysis for large data-set.
Lecture-4: Data processing and visualization in R (Rstudio)
Lecture-5: Consensus generation and variant calling from NGS data-set
