Date: 23 - 24 November 2023

The European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) offers a wide range of bioinformatics sequence analysis applications for free through web and programmatic access.This two-day course is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of sequence analysis tools and how to use the workflows effectively, covering hands-on exercises and demonstrations throughout. The first day focuses on learning about the types of sequence analysis tools and how to use different tools in your analysis. There will be a focus on sequence alignment (e.g., Clustal Omega, EMBOSS), sequence similarity search tools, mainly on how to perform Blast against the UniProt databases; and using InterProScan for protein functional analysis.The second day focuses on alternative methods of accessing the tools and how they help enhance flexibility in sequence analysis—using web service clients and managing workflows.
