About the Iyer Lab (where Anna learned NGS)

http://iyerlab.org/ Dr. Vishy Iyer, PI
Main focus is functional genomics large-scale transcriptional reprogramming in response to diverse stimuli Encode consortium collaborator works in human and yeast
Research methods include microarrays (Dr. Iyer was co-inventor)
high-throughput sequencing (since 2007) especially ChIP-seq, RNA-seq also miRNA-seq, RIP-seq, MNase-seq ... have ~2>2,000 NGS datasets

Communication

...

For online attendees, you can also post your question to the Zoom chat. We'll sometimes use breakout rooms when troubleshooting problems you run into, if so, TA Daryl Barth Matt Bramble will assign you to one.
