Learning your data: Data Processing of Genetic Data.
Description: Processing open access genetic data is often a vital step for many human genetic projects, but the process of ensuring that a dataset is updated and clean can be opaque. In this tutorial, students will walk through the process of creating their own dataset from publicly accessible sources. This tutorial will teach students how to understand the formatting of common genetic data formats, update their genomic build, perform standard quality control measures, and carry out standard genetic research techniques such as Principal Component Analyses and Genome-Wide Association Studies.
Prerequisites:聽Basic Python Knowledge
Prior experience with Scikit-Allele is helpful but not necessary.
