Learn R and Bioinformatics
Module 1.
R for Biology (Free)This introductory module helps you get started with R, a powerful software tool for biological data analysis. We cover the absolute basics and share with you the essence of why R is so useful. You will also receive information on the best online resources to continue learning.
Module 2.
R for Biology - Core ConceptsThis module introduces you to the core concepts of the R language to help you build a solid foundation. Most importantly, it shows you how to think in terms of vectors and functions. You will also get introduced to a number of powerful libraries including tidyverse, stringr and rmarkdown.
Cost:$99 for premium members, $125 for others.
Module 3.
NGS - RNAseq Analysis using RThis module shows various components of RNAseq data analysis. The primary focus is on dplyr library so that you can process tabular data from RNAseq experiments using R. On completion, you will be able to replace Excel or other spreadsheet programs with R and gain efficiency in your data analysis.

Module 4.
NGS - RNAseq Analysis using R (Advanced)This module teaches you to use a number of software tools for RNAseq data analysis. You will map raw reads using Kallisto, perform differential expression analysis using DESeq2/edgeR/sleuth, and learn about annotation, clustering, GO analysis and other biological analyses of data.
Cost:$99 for premium members, $125 for others.
Module 5.
Data Visualization in RVisual representation is an important aspect of biological data analysis. This module shows you various visualization tools in R - core library (scatterplot, histogram), venn diagram, heatmap and logoplot. Most time is spent to cover the powerful and versatile ggplot library that allows you to build publication-quality plots.
Cost:$99 for premium members, $125 for others.
Module 6.
Statistical Analysis in RThis module helps you learn statistical concepts and perform statistical analysis of biological data using R. You will create random datasets, learn about statistical distributions, t-test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), linear regression, Principle Component Analysis (PCA) and clustering analysis.
