10:00-10:15 Introduction to available omics data within BBMRI-omics.nl. Description of RNA-seq, 450k methylation, metabolomics, imputed genotypes, phenotypes and technical covariates. Data location and access. (Rick Jansen)

10.15-10.45: Introduction to the BBMRIomics R package for integrated analysis of BBMRI-omics data using R (Maarten van Iterson)

10:45-11.45: Practicum (Maarten van Iterson)

== Virtual machines used during the course ==

Thanks to the support of SURFsara, we could use run VMs on their [https://www.surf.nl/en/services-and-products/hpc-cloud/index.html HPC cloud] for the hands-on training. Two servers will be available during the training day.

* alpha.bbmrirp3-lumc.surf-hosted.nl

* bravo.bbmrirp3-lumc.surf-hosted.nl


Depending on which login you got assigned, you can access the command line terminal of the VM using:
{{{
 ssh alpha<a number assigned to you>@alpha.bbmrirp3-lumc.surf-hosted.nl
 ssh bravo<a number assigned to you>@bravo.bbmrirp3-lumc.surf-hosted.nl
}}}


Depending on which team you are assigned to, you can access the Rstudio interface of the VM using:
