Calling everyone who works in or with a #bioinformatics core facility - we need your help! We’d like to hear your ideas on what skills core facility scientists need at different levels (I, II, III or manager). Interested in helping? Please fill in this survey by September 30th. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf2P_d6nX6JmhFJtcBNX3zOQB-DuAuOMiIDc7t57tZVM4POog/viewform The results of this survey will feed into the bioinformatics core facility competency framework.

Maria Nattestad just dropped a new introduction to the field of bioinformatics. Foundation skills for bioinformatics: - Python - Use the Command Line (e.g. Bash, scripts) - Statistics - p-values, multiple hypothesis tests
I've used Rosalind in the past to learn about bioinformatics. I solved about 17 of the problems, which is about 6% of the problems on the site. I think it gave a decent mix of guided learning and letting you figure things out on your own. I would say having some background knowledge in biology and coding would be necessary. It doesn't do a lot of hand holding, but there is some.
