Wednesday, January 20th, 2016, 11:00 am–12:30 pm
Speaker:
Noah M. Daniels (MIT)
Location:
Calvin Lab Auditorium
Deep sequencing has become ubiquitous in genomics research due to plummeting costs and massive data volumes. However, it raises formidable algorithmic challenges.
This third mini course will describe methods for genomic compression: how to store, transmit, and analyze efficiently huge datasets that accumulate in the era of deep sequencing.
The first session of this mini course will take place on Tuesday, January 19 from 4:30 pm – 5:30 pm am; the second session of this mini course will take place on Wednesday, January 20 from 9:00 am – 10:30 am.
