Introduction of Tag Seq (3′ Targeted Sequencing)
Tag Seq is a method of sequencing the 3′ ends of mRNA in order to identify differential gene expression using a significantly cost-effective method. This course is an introduction to this Tag Seq method as well as the bioinformatics involved in analyzing a Tag Seq dataset. We will discuss library prep, quality assessment, read mapping, gene quantification, differential expression analysis and downstream analysis.

Introduction to Flow Cytometry Analysis & Cell Sorting
Flow cytometry allows for rapid, simultaneous analysis of multiple parameters of single cells, which can then be sorted into individual populations according to these parameters. In this class, Richard will cover flow cytometry and cell sorting technology, applications of these techniques, best practices for experiments, the use of spectral flow cytometry for complex antibody panels, the fundamentals of performing compensation, and methods for presenting flow cytometry data.
