Josephine AuThe Harvard Bioinformatics Core (HBC) is excited to announce that Postdoctoral Fellow Josephine Au was named as the winner of the recent Training Needs Survey, for which she received a $50 gift card. HBC was grateful to get nearly 200 replies to guide us on the Harvard community’s bioinformatics training needs.


HBC is also excited to announce the next workshop in our Spring 2024 series:

Big data? Big computer! The skill set you need to succeed”Accelerate with Automation — Making your code work for you.This workshop is part of our Current Topics in Bioinformatics  series and is a free, hands-on workshop available to all Harvard affiliates. Foundation – Basic shell, or a working knowledge of Shell, is a pre-requisite for this workshop.

Wednesday, March 20th  1-4pmFree to all Harvard affiliates

Accelerate with Automation — Making your code work for you: This intermediate shell workshop builds upon the basic shell skills learned in The Foundation – Basic Shell. In this workshop, participants will learn how to write basic shell scripts and how to enhance the automation of those scripts through the implementation of loops as well as the incorporation of positional parameters. Participants will also be introduced to slurm arrays and their utility on a high performance cluster.
