About This Course
A Hands-On Program for Genomic Data Analysis takes you through the practical pipeline that turns raw sequencing data into biological insight. You learn to handle sequencing reads, run quality control, align to a reference genome, and call and filter variants, then interpret and annotate the results. The course emphasises doing rather than watching — working with real tools and datasets at each stage — and covers the reproducible, command-line-friendly habits that genomics depends on. You finish able to run a genomic-analysis workflow and interpret its output with confidence. A verified e-Certificate of competency and e-Marksheet from the Deep Science & Technology Consortium.
