*** ANNOUNCING AN NCBI COURSE: NCBI PowerScripting ***
|
|
================================================================
|
|
|
|
NCBI PowerScripting
|
|
|
|
The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) presents NCBI
|
|
PowerScripting, a 3-day course including both lectures and computer
|
|
workshops on effectively using the NCBI E-utilities within scripts to
|
|
automate search and retrieval operations across the entire suite of Entrez
|
|
databases.
|
|
|
|
Dates: September 28-30, 2005
|
|
|
|
Location: Lister Hill Center (Bldg 38A), NLM, NIH, Bethesda, MD
|
|
|
|
For more information and to apply for the course, see the course web page at
|
|
|
|
<A HREF="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Class/PowerTools/eutils/course.html">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Class/PowerTools/eutils/course.html</A>
|
|
|
|
The course is free but an application is required.
|
|
Space is limited to 20 participants.
|
|
** There are currently only a few places available, so apply now! **
|
|
|
|
******************************************************************
|
|
|
|
During the course, participants will learn how to do the following:
|
|
|
|
* Design and execute complex searches across the 29 Entrez databases
|
|
* Implement data pipelines for genomic, proteomic, or microarray analysis
|
|
* Create automated searches to keep local databases current
|
|
* Create and download customized datasets
|
|
* Seamlessly combine local data with NCBI data
|
|
* Develop a focused interface to NCBI data
|
|
|
|
The course is intended for bioinformatics and information specialists who
|
|
are interested in accessing NCBI data in an automated fashion. A working
|
|
knowledge of NCBI resources and the Perl scripting language is required.
|
|
|
|
The course consists of a series of lectures and associated computer
|
|
workshops over 2 days, followed on the third day by a morning panel
|
|
discussion with NCBI programmers, an NCBI tour and an optional afternoon
|
|
session for individual consultations. Participants will program in Perl
|
|
using the Cygwin LINUX emulation environment on Windows XP laptops. NCBI
|
|
will provide all necessary hardware and software.
|
|
|
|
The course will be held at the NCBI Training Center in the Lister Hill
|
|
Center (Building 38A) of the National Library of Medicine on the main NIH
|
|
campus in Bethesda, MD.
|
|
|
|
Participants will be responsible for their own transportation, lodging and
|
|
meals. There are numerous hotels in Bethesda, as well as in Rockville and
|
|
surrounding areas of Montgomery County. Bethesda also contains a renowned
|
|
variety of restaurants that are only a few minutes walk from campus.
|
|
|
|
Public transportation to the Medical Center Metro stop (Red Line) provides
|
|
the most convenient access to NIH. See the course web page above for more
|
|
information.
