MIG Workshop: Introduction to deep learning for scRNA-seq

INSTRUCTOR: Jiadong Mao, Sandeep Santhosh Kumar 

TUTOR: Xiaochen Zhang 

This course will introduce concepts of deep learning and how these techniques can be applied for various tasks, from batch correction denoising to statistical inference. We will look at how the results from a deep learning method can be interpreted, and used for downstream analysis, such as visualisation and clustering. 

We will apply deep learning methods, such as scVI to single cell RNA-seq data. 

Pre-requisites: 

R programming skills (see our latest course for a refresher, https://github.com/melbintgen/intro-to-r) 

Introduction to single cell RNA-seq analysis (covered previously, https://github.com/melbintgen/Intro-to-scRNA-seq-analysis)
