About this Class

Qiagen’s CLC Genomics Workbench is a point-and-click software that enables analysis of multi-omics sequencing data and is available to NCI researchers only. Submit a ticket with service.cancer.gov to request installation on local computer. Long reads aid structural variant and transcript isoform discovery. This class covers 1) de novo assembly and mapping high-quality long reads to reference and 2) polishing de novo assembly of poor-quality long reads using high-quality short reads. No prior experience or installation is needed to attend.
