ABOUT
ELIXIR-FR in collaboration with IFB and CIRAD are pleased to announce a Plant Genome Assembly and Annotation event.
Fee
There is no course attendance fee. The participants will need to bear their travel and hotel (if any). ELIXIR-FR, Cirad and Agropolis will cover coffee breaks and lunches costs.

Description
The course is aimed at scientists interested in learning more about plant genome assembly and annotation. It will include information useful for both the beginner and the more advanced user. We will start by introducing general concepts and then continue step-by-step to describe all major components of a genome assembly and annotation workflow, from raw data all the way to a final assembled and annotated genome. There will be a mix of lectures and hands-on practical exercises using command line Linux. After the course the participants will be aware of common practices and commonly used tools and be know how to run assembly and annotation projects.
