Introduction to the UNIX Shell: A Six Workshop Sequence
The six, one-hour Introduction to the UNIX Shell workshops below are a chained sequence of workshops to introduce participants to the UNIX command line, basic commands, navigating the file system, setting up bioinformatics projects, and introductory scripting. Each class will build upon the prior class and each part is a prerequisite for the next class in the six-workshop UNIX Shell sequence.
The six workshops in the UNIX Shell sequence are in turn prerequisites for the six, one-hour Introduction to Bioinformatics Basics workshops which follow in the semester-long workshop series.
NOTE: These classes fill quickly. Seats that open up when registrants cancel will be offered to those on the waitlist in order of registration. REGISTER ONLY if you plan to ATTEND the live workshop and are willing to review any missed prerequisite content.
