Make separate tutorial for splicing?

[mblue9]

Just wondering what people's thoughts are on making a standalone tutorial for splicing?

e.g. making a training module out of the DEXSeq part that used to be part of the reference-based tutorial here: https://github.com/galaxyproject/training-material/blob/d3a8e4cc5052f27270703b402712dc8de57d912f/topics/transcriptomics/tutorials/ref-based/tutorial.md

Personally I think it would be good for a few reasons - I see splicing/exon-level analysis as a separate type of analysis to gene-level differential expression and I think it might be information-overload for learners to include it as part of a full tutorial from reads to gene-level DE genes. I also think it was kind of buried in the ref-based tutorial.

But what do others think?

❤️ I like this idea!
We can always link to it as a following tutorial at the end of the ref-based one

Great! 👍 Yes I was thinking linking it from the ref-one would be good.

Do you know how to get the old commits from https://github.com/galaxyproject/training-material/blob/d3a8e4cc5052f27270703b402712dc8de57d912f/topics/transcriptomics/tutorials/ref-based/tutorial.md into a PR or is it just copy and paste?

Euh good question. I do not how to do that....

Since (I suppose) you are going to also remove the DEXSeq part from the ref-based tutorial in the same commit, I think cut&paste is fine, the history will still be in the git repository.
