Why should YOU attend?
- You're a researcher, academician, or student interested in gene expression, transcriptomics, and their applications.
- You're interested in advanced skills in RNA-seq analysis.
- You want user-friendly platforms for the interpretation of RNA-seq data.
- You got the transcriptome results from the sequencing vendor but not sure how to interpret them.
- You wish to analyse the transcriptome data hands-on, especially as a biologist instead of a data scientist.
- You want to learn on how to mine for biological knowledge from transcriptome data without programming/coding.
- You work on a transcriptomic project and want to learn on how to publish your results as a high-impact journal article.
This workshop is opened to local & international participants, from beginner to advanced researchers in molecular biology / omics. The content of this workshop is transferable to other omics studies such as proteomics.

Requirements
For online participants, please download and install Microsoft Teams for the online sessions. You won't need a computer with very high specifications.
Minimum requirements: Windows OS (ideally 64-bit Windows 10 and above) with minimum 2 GB RAM and 10 GB hard disk storage to run MS Excel (2016 and above) and Perseus software for day 2 and day 3 practicals, respectively. For Mac users, please run Windows via Parallels or Bootcamp etc.
We will be using Perseus v2.0.9. Installers can be downloaded here. You just need to unzip the Perseus folder.
It's recommended that you use two devices (e.g., desktop/smartphone + laptop) or dual monitor setup to allow easy following of online demos during practicals.
For hands-on practicals, make sure that all software (Excel & Perseus) can run on your laptop before the workshop. Due to time constraint we don't have the time to individually troubleshoot software installation. As a pre-workshop training, you can try out this tutorial with the demo dataset to get familiar with Perseus basic functions. You can refer to Perseus demo videos Part 1 & Part 2.
Don't worry if your laptop cannot run Perseus, you can still learn a lot from this workshop on transcriptomics, different technologies, analysis workflow, applications, data interpretation, and visualisation of omics data.
You can email me if facing any difficulty, I will try my best to help.
