The CRG is committed to strengthen and promote high-quality training for technicians. This call aims to provide the CRG and CNAG technicians with additional opportunities to undertake training in the form of courses or workshops that are essential to their professional development and are not available within the CRG and/or PRBB Intervals training portfolio.
Short internships for the PhD students, Postdocs, and Technicians in various CRG departments
Whether you aim to become an independent investigator in academia, a project leader in industry or a research manager gaining complementary abilities and practical experience will enhance your competitive advantage at each career step.
This is an introductory course to statistics and R programming. The R part is offered in 4 slow-paced practicums for absolute beginners, followed by 3 faster-paced practicums of statistical modules. For practical exercises we will use R programming language and R Studio.
The 16th CRG Symposium: Seventh International Workshop on Genomic Epidemiology will take place at the PRBB Auditorium from 20 to 22 September 2017 will gather speakers to discuss about the progress in sequencing and with other technologies for biomolecular analysis, and their applications in research and clinical settings.
Today’s global economy and business are facing a tremendous challenge: how to transform research, the money invested and the resources provided to laboratories and scientific parks into new innovations to create new products and services that can lead to the improvement of the life of individuals and society as a whole. One of the main barriers encountered is the “distance” between researchers and the business world. This distance is not usually physical, it is simply a lack of knowledge on both sides.

Zerone discretizes several ChIP-seq replicates simultaneously and resolves conflicts between them. After the job is done, Zerone checks the results and tells you whether it passes the quality control.
We have developed the WALTZ algorithm for the identification of amyloid forming hexapeptides in amino acid sequences. WALTZ combines terms from amino acid sequence scoring in the learning set, physical property analysis and homology modelling. The method shows ~84% sensitivity at ~92% specificity on the AmylHex dataset, and correctly identifies mutations in human proteins known to be associated with amyloid deposition. The combination of the aggregation predicting algorithm TANGO with WALTZ, provides a complete cover of aggregation and amyloid tendency in protein sequences.
WALTZ is being developed by Joost Schymkowitz and Frederic Rousseau and their team at the SWITCH Laboratory of VIB in Brussels, Belgium, in collaboration with Luis Serrano and his team at the CRG in Barcelona, Spain.
