Please note that NBIS cannot invoice individuals. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCourse description\n\n\n\nThis intense one-week workshop provides an introduction to the analysis of next generation sequencing data. Lectures on the theory of concepts will be paired with practical computational exercises in the Linux environment. The practical exercises will focus on data from the Illumina platform\, but we will discuss other sequencing platforms and the advantages and challenges to using their data during the lectures. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCourse content\n\n\n\nBriefly\, the workshop covers the followings major topics: \n\n\n\n\nWorking on the UNIX/LINUX command line\n\n\n\nBioinformatic/NGS data formats and QC\n\n\n\nDNA variant calling workflow essentials\n\n\n\nRNA sequence analysis workflow essentials\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning outcome\n\n\n\nAfter this workshop you should be able to: \n\n\n\n\nDescribe the basic principles of next generation sequencing.\n\n\n\nUse the Linux command line interface to manage simple file processing operations\, and organise directory structures.\n\n\n\nConnect to and work on a remote high performance compute cluster.\n\n\n\nApply programs in Linux for analysis of NGS data.\n\n\n\nSummarise the applications of current NGS technologies\, including the weakness and strengths of the approaches and when it is appropriate to use which one of them.\n\n\n\nExplain common NGS file formats.\n\n\n\nInterpret quality control of NGS reads.\n\n\n\nExplain the steps involved in variant calling using whole genome sequencing data.\n\n\n\nIndependently perform a basic variant calling workflow on example data.\n\n\n\nDemonstrate hands-on experience with handling raw RNA sequencing data\, QC and quantification of gene expression.\n\n\n\nExplain the steps involved in differential gene expression using RNA seq data.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEntry requirements\n\n\n\nTo be able to follow the workshop you need to: \n\n\n\nBYOL\, bring your own laptop configured according to precourse instructions. \n\n\n\nHave a background in genetics\, cell biology\, biomedicine\, biochemistry\, bioinformatics or comparable. \n\n\n\nTo get the maximum benefit from the workshop you should: \n\n\n\nHave a research project where you are currently using or are planning to use next generation sequencing. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSelection criteria\n\n\n\nDue to limited space the course can accommodate a maximum of 30 participants. If we receive more applications\, participants will be selected based on several criteria. Selection criteria include correct entry requirements\, motivation to attend the workshop as well as gender and geographical balance. Priority is given to PhD scholars followed by other researchers\, and we will prioritise applications from Swedish academia.

SUMMARY:Introductory Course in Organisational learning
DESCRIPTION:How do we build a collaborative and innovative workplace? \n\n\n\nIn the first offering of this two-day course in Organizational Learning\, learn how we can adapt and improve as an organization through gathering\, sharing\, and applying knowledge. This course goes beyond individual skill development to building organizational culture and structure. Through creating and utilizing organizational processes that foster collective learning and development\, we can achieve the workplace we want. \n\n\n\nThe lectures\, discussions\, and exercises of this course will teach foundational principles and theories of Organizational Learning\, including concepts on organizational knowledge\, knowledge management\, and workplace training.We will also give you practical tools and sustainable strategies you can apply beyond the course—such as how to enhance learning at all levels\, from the individual (micro level)\, to group/team (meso level) and organization (macro level). \n\n\n\nWe welcome managers\, coordinators\, and leaders from all career stages to learn how to build a workplace culture of continuous learning in a resource-friendly way using organizational knowledge and collective intelligence! \n\n\n\nRegistration Deadline\n\n\n\nThere is no deadline for application. Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis\, and applicants will be confirmed their enrollment within 5 business days.  \n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nTargeted level of the training event:\n\n\n\nIntroductory level \n\n\n\nTarget Audience:\n\n\n\nInfrastructure managers\, SciLifeLab affiliated group leaders\, and other staff with managerial roles. \n\n\n\nPrerequisites:\n\n\n\nNo prior knowledge of organisational learning\, management or individual learning is required\, but experience from management is beneficial.  \n\n\n\nLearning Outcomes: \n\n\n\nBy the end of this course\, participants should be able to: \n\n\n\n– explain key concepts in Organisational Learning\, and how these relate to culture\, leadership and organisational processes. \n\n\n\n– identify similarities and differences between individual learning\, group learning and organisational learning \n\n\n\n– identify workplace learning activities\, and recognize how these can be designed to create additional organisational value \n\n\n\n–  identify barriers and promoters for knowledge dissemination and organisational learning \n\n\n\nSyllabus:\n\n\n\nDay 1 (Thursday 21.3.2024):                                          \n\n\n\nModule 1 – Introduction to Organisational Learning \n\n\n\nModule 2 – Basic concepts of Individual learning \n\n\n\nDay 2 (Friday 22.3.2024):                        \n\n\n\nModule 3 – Concepts of Organisational Learning \n\n\n\nModule 4 – How we promote organisational learning \n\n\n\nSpring 2024: \n\n\n\nAfter the course an optional follow-up session will be held online. Exact date will be decided by the participants. \n\n\n\nCourse fee:\n\n\n\nThere is no course attendance fee. Please note that the course does not include any meals or accommodation. \n\n\n\nSelection criteria:\n\n\n\nDue to limited space\, the course accommodates a maximum of 25 participants.
