Learn how to:
- Determine the quality of sequencing data and understand the potential causes for poor data quality
- Understand the importance of sequencing and editing quality in the interpretation of HIV drug resistance mutations
- Properly use software for drug resistance analysis
- Maintain continuous data quality through proper training and following SOPs
- Obtain quality assured HIV drug resistance data
- Implement quality control measures to ensure quality sequencing data
