We’re pleased to announce the launch of our new online API course.

Take it for free on EBI’s Train Online platform.

This course provides an introduction to the Ensembl API and how to use it to explore Ensembl gene, sequence, variation, regulation and comparative genomics data, and was filmed over a three-day course at the EMBL-EBI. You take the course from start to finish, or you can dip in and out of your favourite module. The course is complete with video lectures and exercises with full solutions, including sample scripts and commentary.

Many thanks to all the instructors who were filmed for this course: Magali Ruffier, Anja Thormann, Nathan Johnson, Matthieu Muffato and Stephen Fitzgerald. The course was compiled together by Ensembl’s Emily Pritchard, working with Mark Adams from EBI’s Outreach and Training who filmed, edited and processed the videos and slides.

If you like the course, you might want to host a real-life course at your institute.
