Day 5 | NGS On - Hands Training (Bioinformatics & Data Analysis)
OmicSure, in collaboration with Pak Austria Fachhochschule (PAF-IAST), successfully concluded its five-day hands-on NGS training workshop with an insightful final session on NGS Data Analysis & Bioinformatics.
The concluding session focused on the crucial stage that follows sequencing, processing, analysing, and interpreting NGS data using bioinformatics tools and computational approaches to transform sequencing data into meaningful biological insights.
We are truly grateful to the team of experts who joined us for this session and shared their knowledge, experience, and perspectives with our participants.
A special thank you to Dr. Musharraf Jelani (Professor of Molecular Biology & Genetics, Institute of Basic Medical Sciences, Khyber Medical University Peshawar), Dr. Qaiser Zaman (Assistant Professor of Molecular Biology & Human Genetics, Higher Education Department, Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa), Mr. Taimoor Khan (PhD Scholar & Bioinformatician, Institute of Basic Medical Sciences, Advanced Center for Genomic Technologies, KMU Peshawar) and Mr. Muhammad (PhD Scholar, Centre for Omic Sciences, Islamia College Peshawar).
We are also sincerely grateful to Dr. Hira Niazi and Dr. Muhammad Afzal from Department of Biological & Health Sciences for joining the session and sharing their valuable insights. Their contributions and perspectives added great value to the learning experience.
A special and heartfelt thank you to Dr. Fazli, Head/Chairperson, Department of Biomedical and Health Sciences, for his support, encouragement, and for allowing us to create and facilitate opportunities like this for students and researchers. His support played an important role in making this training possible.
A heartfelt appreciation to Dr. humaira ayub for creating and supporting a platform that makes advanced genomics education and practical learning opportunities accessible to students and researchers in the region.
This workshop was not just about learning the NGS workflow; it was about building skills, connecting researchers, and strengthening the genomics community in our region.
