Overview
This will be a hands-on tutorial on how to install and use the GBrowse genome browser.
Tutorial Level
Beginner to Intermediate. Students should be comfortable performing simple system administration tasks like stopping and starting services.
Students who wish to use their own computer should preinstall the prerequisites described in the GBrowse installation notes, including Perl, Apache, MySQL and (for Unix) BioPerl.
Intended Audience
