Utilisation of second generation sequencing technologies for the research of nonmodel organisms (in Czech language)

Technological innovations in DNA sequencing during past decade facilitate detailed insight in wide spectrum of whole genome processes. These novel sequencing technologies are plainfully used in biomedical research. Nevertheless, they seems to be very efficient tool for the research of various questions associated with biology of non-model organisms as well. This course is intended for scientist and students that would like to use these genetic methods in research of free-living nomodel organisms. The aim of this course is to provide overview of current second generation sequencing technologies, including their advantages and drawbacks and details concerning quality and quantity of data produced by individual platforms. We will also discuss research tasks might be effectively solved using second generation sequencing technologies.
