On August 23, 2017, the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) will present the Webinar, "Using the Run Selector to Find Relevant Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) Datasets."

Do you have trouble searching the NCBI Web page for relevant Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) datasets? Wish you could filter the search results more precisely? You can with the Sequence Read Archive (SRA) Run Selector.

In this NCBI Minute, you'll learn how to filter the SRA database using the metadata details captured for each submitted dataset. This is easily done in a spreadsheet format that displays all recorded metadata for each SRA Run. The user-friendly interface allows you to selectively filter datasets down to the most relevant data for your research question and then export it in a spreadsheet.

Date and time: Wednesday, August 23, 2017 12:00 PM - 12:30 PM EDT
