1. Watch the Intro to RNA-Seq Webinar
    The hands-on workshop builds on the content of this 1-hour webinar that introduces foundational concepts of RNA-Seq experiments including experimental design, sample preparation, QC, sequencing, and initial interpretation of preliminary results.

  2. (optional) If you have not already, we invite you to take the Pre-workshop survey

  3. (optional) Brush up your Bash/R skills.
    (Notes from the most recent Bioinformatics Core workshop.)

  4. FYI: The computer setup and shared compute server is the same as for the Computational Foundations Workshop so if you attended that workshop you are all set.
    If you want to review those steps, you can follow this link for instructions to set up your computer. Also, a separate email with the subject “UM BioinfCore Workshop Login” will detail your individual username and password to access the shared server. (Note that this email is sometimes flagged as spam, so if you don’t see it in your Inbox please check your spam folder.)

  5. FYI: We will be using the same Workshop Slack space as the Computational Foundations Workshop and we have added you to the 2023-11-rnaseq-demystified-workshop Slack channel

We are looking forward to seeing you in the workshop. Please let us know if you have any questions.
