This half-day workshop will take you through the basic use of Git and GitHub. Git is a free and open source distributed version-control system designed to maintain code, track changes, recover old versions and collaborate with other developers. More info and registration.
Workshop organized by ELIXIR Belgium and the VIB Bioinformatics Core.
This course is organised over two full days (30-31 March 2020). With the help of plenty hands-on exercises, you will get introduced into the different types of variables in python, the peculiarities of python and good programming habits. This course will provide you an ideal stepping stone for further developing programming skills in Python. More info and registration.

This is two-day course will give you an insight in Docker & Singularity containers, and the Nextflow analysis pipeline. Containers allow you to easily install bioinformatics software, maintain multiple versions of the same software and combine tools into powerful analysis pipelines. This allows you to perform data analysis without conflicting package dependencies.
During this ReproHack – the first one organised in Belgium – participants will attempt to reproduce published research from a list of proposed papers with available code and data. The hackathon stimulates to start working with other people's code and data, and make your own data analysis reproducible. Participants will largely work together and learn from each other. More information and registration.

This course is organised over two full days (21 and 22 September 2020). By means of hands-on exercises, you will learn to fetch biological data and sequencing files from online databases, and be able to parse and analyse this data. There will be time to highlight specific requests of topics from participants.

This 1-day course aims to introduce how to use the Galaxy platform using variant discovery as a use-case. The course is organised in the context of the “Connecting ESFRIs project”. Apart from the offered training, phylogenetic analysis tools are made available in Galaxy. Although initially set-up for Botanical Garden researchers, participants from other research institutes are welcome to attend.
Galaxy enables researchers without bioinformatics expertise to perform computational analyses through the web. This hands-on workshop aims to familiarize you with the Galaxy user interface & execute (label-free) proteomics data-analysis.
The first part of this hands-on workshop will introduce the participants to the Galaxy platform. Basic tasks such as importing data, running tools, working with histories, creating workflows, and sharing of the work will be handled.
