NCGAS

NCGAS Genomics Research webinar series

This monthly scientific series highlights the research of scientists who use computational resources provided by the National Center for Genome Analysis Support (NCGAS). *Webinars take place the second Tuesday of each month, 2-3pm EST, March-August, 2021.*

Unix: The Basics

Use this online course to go from little to no experience to being functional with UNIX/LINUX in a supercomputing environment. *This course is available online 24/7 via Expand.*

HPC Onboarding for Biologists

The National Center for Genome Analysis Support (NCGAS) provides this high performance computing (HPC) workshop to help new users learn about HPC resources available to them, other course offerings, and NCGAS services. *View the archive of May 2020 workshop. *The online version of this course is available online 24/7 via Expand.*

Carbonate Supercomputer

This online course helps users become familiar with IU's supercomputers; from storage and security best practices to job execution. It is commensurate with the in-person Intro to HPC workshop. *This course is available online 24/7 via Expand.*

Jetstream Overview: A national research and education cloud

This workshop introduces IU researchers to Jetstream, a cloud resource supporting education and research. *Virtual workshop available online.*

Research Desktop (RED)

This online course helps users learn to use the graphical interface, RED, to access IU's supercomputers. Learn storage options, security, the RED desktop features, and practical experiences. *This course is available 24/7 online via Expand.*

Storage for High Performance Computing

Learn the basics of using storage on IU’s supercomputing systems, including data lifecycles and types, moving data in and out of IU systems, and finish with hands-on experience.

Intro to R for Biologists

In this National Center for Genome Analysis Support workshop/course, learn about the Bioconductor Project and the basics of RStudio—data types, classes, objects, and more—and how to write and use a function. *Download the course materials (pdf or zip) and view the workshop presentations via YouTube. *The online version of this course is available online 24/7 via Expand.*

Metagenomics Analysis

The National Center for Genome Analysis Support offered this workshop on HPC resources and assembly/annotation of metagenomic datasets. *View the course content online via GitHub including the PowerPoint presentations.*

Mining Sequence Read Archive (SRA)

The National Center for Genome Analysis Support offered this workshop to help researchers use SRA to run their bioinformatics workflows efficiently using computational resources available through NCGAS/XSEDE. *View the course content online via GitHub including the PowerPoint presentations.*

De novo assembly of transcriptomes using HPC resources

The National Center for Genome Analysis Support (NCGAS) offered this workshop on HPC usage and de novo transcriptome assembly. *View the course content online via GitHub or course presentations via YouTube.*

Supercomputing for Everyone Series

The Supercomputing for Everyone Series (SC4ES) aims to bring more users into the realm of advanced computing, whether it be visualization, computation, analytics, storage, or any related discipline. Research Technologies can take you to the next level of computing.

Workshops are offered online and at the IU Bloomington and IUPUI campuses.

The Supercomputing for Everyone Series (SC4ES) aims to bring more users into the realm of advanced computing, whether it be visualization, computation, analytics, storage, or any related discipline. Research Technologies can take you to the next level of computing.

Supercomputing for Everyone Series workshops and seminars are led by personnel from Research Technologies, a division of University Information Technology Services and a center in the Pervasive Technology Institute at Indiana University.
