###### **IN-PERSON (Longwood Medical Area):**

**Tuesday, April 22, 2025**: 9:30 AM - 12 PM

**Friday, April 25, 2025**: 9:30 AM - 12 PM

*Instruction will be **mostly learner-centric**, requiring a time commitment between the workshop sessions!*

###### **Description:**

Large-scale data analysis often requires use of high-performance computing (HPC) resources and knowledge of tools available via the command-line interface (also referred to as Unix or Linux or bash or shell).

In this **3-day hands-on workshop** participants will learn the following:

- basic shell commands for navigating the file system, exploring file contents, performing basic operations, such as moving, copying, and renaming
- how to write shell scripts and use “for” loops for efficiently running the same commands on multiple files
- how to use [HMS-RC’s](https://it.hms.harvard.edu/our-services/research-computing) O2 cluster for high-performance computing (HPC) - guest logins are provided

**Together, this knowledge is critical for researchers looking to improve efficiency when performing computational tasks and it forms the foundation needed to analyze high-throughput sequencing data.**
