Welcome to the Physalia November 2026 course run by Marcela Uliano-Silva & João Ferreira.

Follow the links on the left-hand side to take part in the course modules.

This course will introduce the audience to a spectrum of methods that are part of a typical assembly workflow, starting from raw data and finishing with a fully assembled genome. We will see how to manipulate raw reads, analyse their quality, how to run different assembly algorithms, how to run Hi-C scaffolding algorithms and how to assess assembly quality.
