ENCODE Workshop, April 2015, Keystone Symposia

On April 1st, 2015, the ENCODE consortium held a workshop at the Keystone Symposia on Epigenomics and DNA Methylation. This workshop was intended for both the beginner and advanced ENCODE users.

First, we illustrated how to use the ENCODE portal website, including how to browse, search and download ENCODE data. We also introduced the ENCODE analysis pipeline and the REST APIs. We explained the ENCODE element annotations and its query website. Next, we presented chromosomal annotation (ChromHMM) and epigenome imputation. Finally, we illustrated how the ENCODE data can help us hypothesize the causal variants underlying disease and cancer.
