Webinars on using Containers in bioinformatics
by Michael Charleston 05 Jun '20

05 Jun '20

Hi all! Long time no hear. There are a series of bioinformatics webinars being run soon by Australian BioCommons, on the use of Containers. Here's the link: https://www.biocommons.org.au/events/containers-intro [http://static1.squarespace.com/static/5d3a4213cf4f5b00014ea1db/5d3a5c1b6311…]<https://www.biocommons.org.au/events/containers-intro> WEBINAR SERIES: Using Containers in Bioinformatics — Australian BioCommons<https://www.biocommons.org.au/events/containers-intro> Using containers in bioinformatics can bring benefits like software portability, data reproducibility and improved collaboration. Are containers the right fit for your research? This three-part series takes you from the absolute basics of containers through to demonstrating how to use containers in www.biocommons.org.au What's a container? It's a way of packaging up analyses with correct versions of software and data to make analyses highly reproducible, which as we know is incredibly important and often rather lacking in published work. There's a really nice blog entry here on why containers, in particular one system called Docker, is handy. Very accessible read: link below. If you're interested in "attending" the webinars then you can register to do so, and I think they'll be recorded. After the webinars there will be some online workshops learning how to use containers; you don't have to worry about registering for them now but I'd like to get a sense if anyone was interested in *maybe* doing one of those. I get the impression they will use command-line tools but don't know yet. Anyway, have a read over the long weekend: https://www.molecularecologist.com/2016/05/docker-making-our-bioinformatics… Cheers for now, Michael Charleston [cid:5060fe50-be4c-4a29-8610-59a03a6b9461] Mathematical Biology Group Associate Professor in Bioinformatics Associate Head of School (Learning and Teaching) Academic co-Lead, UTAS - Data, Knowledge, Decisions School of Natural Sciences University of Tasmania AUSTRALIA Phone: +61 3 6226 2444 Zoom ID: https://utas.zoom.us/j/2948029484 University of Tasmania Electronic Communications Policy (December, 2014).

You may have missed an announcement for a beginner's guide to phylogenetic analysis that will be run on Friday 8th November
by Michael Charleston 05 Nov '19

05 Nov '19

In case this is true, check out https://www.biocommons.org.au/events where you can register for a free, easy afternoon of an introduction to phylogenetic estimation, guided by me and with the expert help of Dr Bennet McComish. The venue is in the Maths and Physics building and it will run from 1-4pm. This workshop is the first of two planned; the second will be a follow-up where you bring your own problematic data for discussion or help. It will be run nationally via videoconfering technology, thanks to the amazing people at the Australian Biocommons, which used to be EMBL-ABR. Let me know if you're interested, and go register!

Hi there, Tracey and I supervise a student, Waleed, who is looking at zinc uptake and translocation in barley. He would like to do some association mapping of Zn in barley as part of his PhD. Waleed's done some association mapping and blasting before, but Tracey and I are not experts in this area. Is there anyone at UTAS who might be able to help him get started?
