A hands-on workshop on how to access genomic data on a variety of vertebrate and invertebrate species and major model organisms.
This workshop will guide users through the process of finding and visualizing protein-coding genes in the context of the human genome and a wide variety of genomic data. Common queries are presented with step- by-step instructions for implementing them. Resources, including links to tutorials, exercises and other informational material on using the GB will be provided.

The UCSC Genome Browser provides visualization tools for a large genomic database spanning more than 100 animals. In addition to providing a viewer for a large number of annotation datasets including mRNA alignments, gene predictions, epigenetic marker mapping and expression data, new features include a tool to
analyze sequence variant data, and a new capability for users to host a fully functional Browser on organisms not part of the UCSC infrastructure. Genome Browser views of user data may be saved and shared with colleagues and processed with the Table Browser, including intersection with UCSC-hosted data.
