ATACseq Course Registration

BovReg project will organize an onsite laboratory course on ATAC-Seq: data generation and bioinformatic analysis, to be held during 7^th – 10^th of November 2022 at the University of Limoges, France. The host is Veronique Blanquet and her group at ULIM.

When registering at the form below, applicants should include a brief motivation letter to justify their participation highlighting their contribution and the connection to the FAANG community. It will be convenient to have some familiarity with the UNIX command-line to follow the bioinformatics part of the workshop. Twelve (12) participants will be selected by the organizing group to the onsite version of the course based on these letters. Participation to the first day (online) is not limited by number. The course attendance is free, but the participants should organize and cover their travel and accommodation costs. Information on how to reach Limoges can be found here.

Accommodation options are available in a wide price range.
