More specifically there are beginning to end workflows for common tasks (Bioconductor - Workflows)
-
Most of the conference materials are up at Bioconductor - Courses and Conferences
-
Going through some of the introductory materials would answer the bioc / CRAN questions. * https://github.com/Bioconductor/BiocIntro/tree/Bioc2017 seems like a great general intro.
