Introduction to metabolomics analysis

This course will provide an introduction to metabolomics through lectures and hands-on sessions, using publicly available data, software, and tools. Participants will become familiar with standardised workflows as well as with the current state of experimental design, data acquisition (LC-MS, MS imaging), processing, and modelling. In addition, they will learn about community standards and sharing in metabolomics, particularly through the use of EMBL-EBI’s MetaboLights repository and Galaxy infrastructure. Participants will learn through hands-on tutorials to use tools available for data analysis and data submission. Additionally, case studies will be discussed to show how to employ the week’s learning.

Accessing sequence analysis tools via the new Job Dispatcher website

The Job Dispatcher team at EMBL-EBI provides access to various bioinformatics sequence analysis tools (EMBOSS, Clustal omega, NCBI BLAST+, etc) and biological datasets.This webinar will introduce the new Job Dispatcher website, showcasing how to navigate through various categories of tools and access them for sequence analysis. We will also demonstrate the latest features and user documentation of the Job Dispatcher.

Interpreting the effects of genetic variants on protein structure and function

Genetic variation between individuals results in a range of human phenotypes. Variants that fall within coding regions of genes generally have direct effects on the proteins encoded by the genes with which they overlap. This six-hour virtual workshop will provide participants with an opportunity to gain hands-on experience of using EMBL-EBI tools and resources to assess the effects of genetic variants on the structure and function of proteins in a common workflow. During the course, a single example will be used throughout, using different EMBL-EBI tools and resources at each stage of the analysis pipeline. The example will involve running a VCF file through the Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor (VEP), then following links to UniProt, PDBe, and AlphaFoldDB for further variant information and interpretation. Virtual courseThis course will take place on Zoom. Trainers will be available to assist during practical sessions, answer questions, and provide further explanations during the Zoom.To join the course you will need to create an EMBL-EBI Training website account.
