2022 Marine Genomics Course

As part of my postdoctoral position at University of California, Davis, I had the pleasure of teaching the Marine Genomics course, originally developed by one of my fellow Bay Lab postdocs, Serena Caplins.

In this course, we introduce undergraduates to a suite of bioinformatic techniques used to analyse marine genomic data to answer questions pertaining to population differentiation, gene flow, genotype-phenotype associations, and genotype-environment associations.

The course was developed so that students needed no previous experience with bash/Unix or R. We suggest that the course is run with the following per week: a ~1.5 hr class with a brief lecture followed by a live coding demonstration of the weeks material, plus another ~1hr class where the students can go through the exercises on their own.

I’m very fortunate to have taught this course with an amazing set of co-instructors and TAs: Dr. Tali Magory Cohen, Leslie Guerrero, and Brooke Benson.

Below is the webpage for the course, as well as the link to the github used to create the course webpage.

Happy coding!
