Apply Scop3PTM web-interface to understand post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins

A common mechanism for protein regulation is through post-translational modifications (PTMs), which can affect the characteristics  of proteins. Most available databases on protein PTMs collect and integrate PTM information from various resources, but provide very little or no information on the reliability of the identified PTM sites, experimental condition, pathological status and their functional relevance.

Bulk RNASeq: from counts to differential expression

This course will show tools to generate count files like featureCounts, and htseq count. Count files from HTSeq-Count, FeatureCounts, Salmon or Kallisto are used to identify differentially expressed genes. On the second day, participants can analyze their own count files. Issues are solved and questions are answered by experts from the VIB Nucleomics Core.

Empowering Biodiversity Research III

25-26 March 2024
Naturalis, Leiden, The Netherlands

The Benelux Biodiversity Informatics community and partners, including Elixir Belgium, are pleased to invite you to the Empowering Biodiversity Research III conference, taking place on 25 and 26 March 2024 in Naturalis, Leiden, the Netherlands. You will be able to embark on a journey into the world of biodiversity data standards and tools and will learn about the latest developments in the world of Biodiversity Informatics, both internationally and locally.

Functional analysis: the biology behind the genes

This introduction to functional analysis will elucidate the biology behind genes and reveal the significance of your data. Online tools to annotate and analyse human and plant datasets, such as Gene Ontology Enrichment Analysis and Pathways Analysis, will be used to unravel the meaning of your gene set.

ELIXIR Belgium Conference 2023

Join us at our national conference - ELIXIR Belgium: Your Data, Our Services, European success

TeSS: How can I help?

This session is dedicated to introducing the use of TeSS (Training eSupport System), a platform to promote training events, and contribute to a growing catalogue of materials. The training is intended for anyone who organises events (courses, seminars, hackathons, etc.) and creates materials and who wants to contribute to the platform and improve the impact of their training materials.
 

Research Data Management: your ally on the way to your publication

In this course, you will be guided how to use the different facets of research data management in order to improve the writing of your publications and potentially increase its impact.

 

Nextflow for reproducible and automated data analysis

You will learn how to use Nextflow for building scalable and reproducible bioinformatics pipelines and running them on a personal computer, cluster and cloud. Starting from the basic concepts we will build our own simple pipeline and add new features with every step, all in the new DSL2 language.

 

Objectives

 

Docker and Singularity (Apptainer) for reproducible and automated data analysis

The course will give an introduction to containers (Docker & Singularity) which are great components to achieve portability and reproducibility of your analysis. You will learn how to use containers and how to build a container from scratch, share it with others and how to re-use and modify existing containers. After an extensive explanation on Docker containers, Singularity will be highlighted as well.
