Generation and analysis of whole genome sequence data remains challenging. However, new computational technologies are rapidly making whole genome sequence analysis more accessible. Learn to use the nf-core pipeline PathogenSurveillance (PS) and the genomeRxiv web server, which are tools designed for pathogen diagnosis, variant detection, and biosurveillance, making genome sequencing more accessible and efficient. Gain hands-on experience with PS and how to use genomeRxiv to infer the identities of fungal and bacterial pathogens at within-species resolution. Together, these tools automate genome processing and analyses, accelerating disease diagnosis and fundamental research.
This workshop is lead by the Jeff Chang lab (OSU) and Vinatzer lab (Virginia tech) at Plant Health 2025. No bioinformatics experience necessary. Please contact Boris Vinatzer if you are interested in getting your workshop registration fee reimbursed. Sign up by June 15th.
