NHGRI presents Current Topics in Genome Analysis 2012

The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) has recently started a lecture series covering main topics in Genomics and Bioinformatics. The lectures will be held from January 11th to April 25th and will cover several interesting topics from Biological Sequence Analysis (how to use BLAST, Genome Browsers and so on), to Next-Generation Sequencing and Genomics (see below for a complete list of the events). Videos of the lectures as well as slides in pdf will be available at this NHGRI page.

Ps. Thanks to the myGenomix blog to bring this to my attention!
