Analysis of bacterial genome sequences for molecular epidemiology
-- a hands-on practical workshop
Bacterial genome sequencing has become accessible for
clinical and diagnostic laboratories. However, the
extraction of useful information from large amounts of
sequence data has remained a challenge to many. We
offer a two-day workshop to gain experience with
bioinformatic analyses that enable the identification and
genotyping of bacterial pathogens from raw sequence
data.
The focus will be on open-source and web-based
bioinformatic tools. Participants will need basic computer
skills and should bring their own laptop computers.
Contents:
• de-novo assembly + annotation
• read alignment + variant (SNP, indel) calling
• phylogenetic analyses
• core-genome MLST
• plasmid analyses, resistance prediction
• outbreak identification
