Dear colleagues,<br>
<div> <br>
We are very pleased to announce that the course:<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><font color="#0066cc"><b>Gene expression made useful easily:
tools and database of Bgee</b></font><br>
<br>
<b> will be </b><b>streamed</b><b> live </b><b><font
color="#3366ff"><font color="#330000">on 27 April 2020. Please
help spread the news!</font></font></b><br>
<br>
Bgee is a curated database of gene expression in animals,
including model species such as human, mouse or drosophila, and
others such as primates or fishes. These data are available
through a web interface and an R package. Bgee also includes tools
which use these data, such as TopAnat or Expression Comparison,
and allow integration with users own data.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>There are two components to this course:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>the morning will consist of lectures and demonstrations,
where the developers of the resources will present Bgee, its
tools, and its curated and pre-analysed gene expression data.
</li>
<li>the afternoon will be dedicated to a hands-on session, where
you will also make use of the Bgee companion tools, Bgee’s
online functionalities, and Bgee R packages to retrieve data
and integrate them into one’s own workflow (e.g. RNA-seq
analysis R script). </li>
</ul>

</div>
<p>This course is addressed to:</p>
<ul>
<li>any life scientists who would need to retrieve gene expression
information or obtain expression-based knowledge on genes of
interest</li>
<li>PhD students, postdocs and other researchers, from any
scientific environment (academia, facilities, companies, etc.) <br>
</li>
</ul>
<p><b>Applications close on 20 April</b> to allow time for a smooth
organization of the practicals. <br>
</p>
<p>Should you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact
