From bert at ebi.ac.uk Tue May 7 13:01:00 2013 From: bert at ebi.ac.uk (bert at ebi.ac.uk) Date: Tue, 7 May 2013 13:01:00 +0100 Subject: [ensembl-announce] 3-day Ensembl API workshop, 22-24 May 2013, Hinxton, UK Message-ID: In May the Ensembl team will again provide a 3-day Ensembl Perl API workshop on the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus in Hinxton, United Kingdom. Although this workshop is primarily meant for campus employees, external participants are also more than welcome. The workshop itself is free of cost. You should note though that our campus is located a bit in the middle of nowhere and that you have to make your own arrangements for accommodation and/or travel. A similar workshop will be given end of the year at the University of Cambridge (27-29 November). For more information and to register please mail me (bert at ebi.ac.uk). ********** 3-DAY ENSEMBL API WORKSHOP Time: 22-24 May 2013, 9:30-17:00 Place: Teaching room, EBI, Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, Hinxton, Cambridge, United Kingdom Instructors: Magali Ruffier, Thomas Juettemann, Anja Thormann, Matthieu Muffato, Javier Herrero Costs: none The Ensembl project provides a comprehensive and integrated source of annotation of mainly vertebrate genome sequences. This 3-day workshop is aimed at researchers and developers interested in exploring Ensembl beyond the website. The workshop covers the core, compara, variation and functional genomics (regulation) databases and APIs. For each of these the database schema and the API design as well as its most important objects and their methods will be presented. This will be followed by practical sessions in which the participants can put the learned into practice by writing their own Perl scripts. IMPORTANT: This workshop is NOT intended to teach you either Perl or basic molecular biological and genetic concepts! To be able to attend you should be able to code in Perl and be familiar with basic molecular biology and genetics. A basic knowledge of Ensembl is advantageous. ********** Cheers, Bert -- Bert Overduin, Ph.D. Vertebrate Genomics Team EMBL - European Bioinformatics Institute Wellcome Trust Genome Campus Hinxton, Cambridge CB10 1SD United Kingdom http://www.ebi.ac.uk/~bert From bert at ebi.ac.uk Tue May 7 13:01:00 2013 From: bert at ebi.ac.uk (bert at ebi.ac.uk) Date: Tue, 7 May 2013 13:01:00 +0100 Subject: [ensembl-announce] 3-day Ensembl API workshop, 22-24 May 2013, Hinxton, UK Message-ID: In May the Ensembl team will again provide a 3-day Ensembl Perl API workshop on the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus in Hinxton, United Kingdom.
