Date: Thursday, November 17, 2016 Time: 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (EST) Location: Web Conference Speakers: Michael Fitzsimons, Ph.D, GDC Director of User Services and Outreach, University of Chicago Dr. Zhenyu Zhang, Ph.D, GDC Co-Principal Investigator, University of Chicago |
The GDC webinar series is meant to educate users on the features and tools available in the GDC. "Navigating the GDC - A Case Study" introduces many of the GDC tools available by focusing on exploring mutations found in the tumor suppressor gene TP53.
This webinar is intended for bioinformaticians who are interested in using the NCI Genomic Data Commons (GDC) and supporting tools to access and analyze cancer genomics data. General experience in genomic research and bioinformatics is recommended.
The Navigating the GDC - A Case Study webinar is the first webinar in a series of NCI GDC Webinars. This webinar will help introduce users to the different GDC tools and data types that are available to support cancer genomic analysis. As an example, we will identify common p53 mutations in colon cancer in the GDC cBioPortal, verify mutation calls using BAM slicing in the GDC Data Portal, and investigate the impact of mutations on RNA-Seq expression. In the process we will also highlight the GDC Data Transfer Tool, harmonized clinical data, and the GDC API.
