Analysing linkage disequilibrium with Ensembl

Not yet rated

TheEnsembl projectoffers integrated genome, variation, gene regulation and comparative genomics data of mainly vertebrate genomes on an open access web browser platform.

This webinar will introduce you to the analysis of Linkage Disequilibrium (LD) between variants with Ensembl. We will look at different ways to explore and visualise LD in the Ensembl genome browser website. We will discuss the newLD Calculator toolwhich has been released with Ensembl 91 and show how to use it.

Who is this course for?

This webinar is aimed at individuals who wish to learn more about analysing LD with Ensembl. No prior knowledge of bioinformatics is required, but an understanding of undergraduate level genetics would be useful.

Outcomes

By the end of the webinar you will be able to:

  • Analyse linkage disequilibrium between variants in Ensembl
  • Visualise linkage disequilibrium using the Ensembl Genome Browser

Speakers

  • Emily Perry
    The European Molecular Biology Laboratory-European Bioinformatics Institute's (EMBL-EBI).
