Hello,

My apologies if you have received multiple copies of this notice.

I'm writing to let you know about a free, on-line tutorial my lab is hosting tomorrow (9/25) for Integrated Genome Browser. IGB is open source, free software developed in my lab that helps researchers visualize and analyze data from high-throughput sequencing experiments, including (but not limited to) RNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq, and epigenetics data sets.

Would you forward this announcement to interested students and/or colleagues?

Many thanks,

Ann Loraine

Please join us for a live, on-line tutorial on Integrated Genome Browser:

"Focus on a Feature: Working with Sequence Data."
Wed 1-2 pm Eastern (US) Sept 25

Integrated Genome Browser (IGB) is a highly interactive, fast and flexible desktop genome browser mainly used to view data from RNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq, and other genome-scale data sets. IGB also supports viewing and interacting with sequence data from reference genomes, gene models, or alignments. For example, in IGB, you can select and copy sequence directly from the genomic sequence track or view six-frame translations in a text-based Sequence Viewer display.

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to

* select and copy reference genomic sequence
* view, copy, or save sequence data
* translate sequences in all 6 frames
* view, copy or save gene model sequences with or without introns
* configure how sequence bases are shown
* open genomic sequence as a new track

Example data sets will likely include cold stress or pollen RNA-Seq data sets from Arabidopsis thaliana.

To ensure that you'll be able to do the exercises along with the presenter, please test-run IGB before the tutorial. To download and start IGB, go to bioviz.org<http://bioviz.org> and followed the "Download" links. Once IGB starts, choose Help / Tutorials for a quick introduction to IGB.
