Upcoming Training

This is a 1-day workshop that aims to introduce participants to the Ensembl genome browser and how the Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor (VEP) can be used for variant filtering and prioritisation in clinical research context.

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

• Understand the Ensembl/GENCODE and MANE annotation processes and how to use these transcript sets in the identification of genetic variation.

• Analyse genetic variation data using the Ensembl VEP.

• Understand the output from the Ensembl VEP and filter your results to prioritise variants of interest.

• Explore new human datasets available on the new Ensembl Website.
