TOP REVIEWS FROM COMMAND LINE TOOLS FOR GENOMIC DATA SCIENCE
Highly recommended.
I suggest you take it before "Genomic Data Science with Galaxy".
A really hard introduction to bioinformatics pipelines, it was difficult but was stimulant!
This was one of the most valuable courses I have taken online.
Thank you
This is perhaps one of the most clearly taught courses I have had on Coursera. Thank you for putting in time to teach us!
