{% endcomment %}Ensembl provides an interface and an infrastructure for accessing genomic information, including genes, variants, comparative genomics and gene regulation data, covering over 300 vertebrate species. Its sister project, Ensembl Genomes, consists of five sub-portals (bacteria, fungi, protists, plants, and invertebrate metazoa) which contain data for over 2,000 eukaryotic (including wheat, barley, tomato and brassicas) and over 30,000 prokaryotic genomes.
The workshop will be delivered by Louisse Paola Mirabueno, who completed her Bachelor's degree in Genetics and Cell Biology at Dublin City University, and graduated with an MPhil. at the University of Reading. Louisse joined the Ensembl Outreach team in January 2022. The Ensembl Outreach team and Ensembl are part of the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), who provide open-access resources and training to researchers around the globe.
- Navigate Ensembl using the web browser platform.
- Access main data types in Ensembl: genomes, genes, genetic variation, regulatory features and comparative genomics
- View genomic regions and manipulate the view to add features.
- Explore information about genes and their sequences.
- Analyze genomic variants and associated phenotypes and your own variation data using the Variant Effect Predictor (VEP).
- View homologous genes and genomic regions.
- View functional elements involved in gene regulation and their activity in different cell types.
- Export gene data in bulk using BioMart.

{% comment %} SCHEDULE
Show the workshop's schedule.
Small changes to the schedule can be made by modifying the
schedule.html found in the _includes folder for your
workshop type (swc, lc, or dc). Edit the items and
times in the table to match your plans. You may also want to
change 'Day 1' and 'Day 2' to be actual dates or days of the
week.
For larger changes, a blank template for a 4-day workshop
(useful for online teaching for instance) can be found in
_includes/custom-schedule.html. Add the times, and what
you will be teaching to this file. You may also want to add
rows to the table if you wish to break down the schedule
further. To use this custom schedule here, replace the block
of code below the Schedule <h2> header below with
{% include custom-schedule.html %}.
{% endcomment %}
{% comment %} Edit/replace the text above if you want to include a schedule table. See the contents of the _includes/custom-schedule.html file for an example of how one of these schedule tables is constructed. {% endcomment %}
{% if site.pilot %} The lesson taught in this workshop is being piloted and a precise schedule is yet to be established. The workshop will include regular breaks. Please contact the workshop organisers if you would like more information about the planned schedule. {% endif %}
