A hands-on workshop introducing NCBI bioinformatics tools such as PubMed, Gene, Protein, Nucleotide, and BLAST:

- Starting with an organism and a protein, find the protein sequence and gene coding region
- Starting with a sequence, identify the gene/protein and source
The workshop will cover selecting the proper tools for your question, navigating through the interlinked NCBI databases, and saving your results. It will be offered twice:
- Dates: Tuesday August 29 (add to bCal) and Wednesday August 30 (add to bCal)
