MIG Workshop: Introduction to deep learning for scRNA-seq

Lead instructors: Jiadong Mao & Xiaochen Zhang

This workshop will give you the necessary foundations to get started with single cell RNA-seq analysis, using the R programming language (see prior workshop ‘Intro to R’).

We will cover a typical computational workflow for scRNA-seq data analysis, focusing on normalisation techniques, visualisation with dimension reduction, and the first steps towards cell identity annotation and differential expression analysis. We will use R packages such as Seurat, umap, scran and singleR.

The first hour will be a generic presentation about the typical steps in scRNA-seq data analysis and is open to anyone. The remaining time after the coffee break will focus on hands-on where R programming is a pre-requisite, this part is limited to 30 participants.

Please note, $25 booking fee is fully refunded upon workshop attendance.
