First Ever Computational Medicine in the Cloud Hackathon

Description

The National Center for Biotechnology Information and the Institute for Computational Medicine are hosting a bioinformatics hackathon for anyone experienced in working with complex haplotypes, complex disease, precision medicine, and similar genomic analysis.

This two-day event is for researchers, including students and postdocs, who are already engaged in the use of bioinformatics data or in the development of pipelines for large-scale genomic analyses from high-throughput experiments.

The event itself will focus on open-access public human data. Learn more about the event online.

Potential topics include:

• Coherent-phenotype mapping to haplotypes
• Mapping haplotype blocks to ontologies
• Structural variants in health and disease
• Haplotypes and RNA-seq
• Complex Variant Structure
• Annotation structures for complex variants
• Visualization of complex variants
