This course will provide an intensive introduction to the methods used for analysis of whole genome sequencing (WGS) data and its application to infectious disease epidemiology. Students will learn bioinformatics approaches to WGS analysis through a combination of lectures and hands-on workshops. While command line may be used during this course, a priori knowledge is not required. Target audience - Graduate students and Postdoctoral Fellows working on infectious diseases - Junior faculty with an interest in infectious diseases epidemiology research - Epidemiologists, laboratory personnel and senior scientists from public health units interested in learning to analyze and interpret WGS data for epidemiology This course is part of the McGill Summer Institute in Infectious Diseases and Global Health |
