Module Overview
While sequencing has historically been carried out to
determine the sequence of genes and genomes, modern
high-throughput methods have extended its reach such that it
is core to many common experimental methods i.e.
transcriptomics, analysis of DNA interactions, genome
conformation etc. This module introduces the developement of
modern sequencing technology, the capabilities of different
instrument and library types, data formats, quality assessment
and read trimming.

After completing this module, participants will be able to:
- Understand the benefits of different types of sequence
- Understand sequence base quality
- Understand sequence file formats
- Carry out quality assessment of sequence data
- Carry out quality trimming of sequence data
