BlueBear and Galaxy Introduction and Workshops
CCB will be presenting a BlueBear and Galaxy Introduction Seminar on Friday the 24th July at 10.00 am in the CCB Large Meeting Room, Haworth Building. 

The seminar is for those who are interested in using Galaxy when working with large data sets (e.g. Next Generation Sequencing). Galaxy is the open source platform for data intensive biomedical research and/or BlueBear.  BlueBear is the Birmingham Environment for Academic Research (BEAR) and a collection of IT resources managed by IT Services .

The seminar will provide a user's guide to accessing BlueBear Applications using Linux command line with instructions on registration for a BlueBear account and how to submit jobs to BlueBear. This will be followed by a brief introduction to Galaxy, the workflow environment and its advantages for life science researchers working with large data sets or a protracted data analysis pipeline. Finally, an overview of the metabolomics pipeline in the Galaxy environment will be provided.

Upcoming workshops:
10 September 2015 (half day) – Introduction to remote command line Linux (for BlueBear users)
23 September 2015 (half day) - BEAR Necessities (BlueBear job submissions and data transfer)
30 September 2015 (half day) – RNA-Seq data analysis using Galaxy
