Dear all, Our new online course, MicroRNA Annotation and Small RNA-Seq Analysis (6–9 October), provides a practical, hands-on introduction to the complete workflow—from raw sequencing reads to high-quality microRNA annotations. Course website: https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/smallrnaseq/ Using real datasets and published studies, participants will learn how to: Process and quality-control small RNA-seq data Retrieve and reproduce analyses from published research Perform microRNA annotation using current best practices Critically evaluate predicted microRNAs and avoid common annotation pitfalls Apply widely used tools including miRTrace, MirMachine, and MirMiner Designed for PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and scientists working in genomics, molecular biology, and bioinformatics, the course combines theory with extensive practical exercises that participants can immediately apply to their own research.
