Over 125 years old, The Cathedral Church of Saint John the Divine is the largest cathedral in the world. It is the “mother church” of the Episcopal Diocese of New York and the seat of its Bishop. The church is chartered as a house of prayer for all people and as a unifying center of intellectual light and leadership.
While Cathedrals traditionally do not have their own congregations, St. John the Divine is home to the Congregation of Saint Saviour, which operates independently from the Cathedral. The congregation has approximately 400 members. Information about services and times can be found below. Furthermore, all those who would like to attend worship services and anyone seeking a place for prayer or meditation will be welcomed without charge. For sightseeing, visit the admissions page to learn more.
Like the great Medieval cathedrals and churches of the world, St. John the Divine is unfinished and will continue to be constructed over many centuries. Currently, funding is mostly directed towards maintaining the architectural integrity of the Cathedral and prioritizing serving the community through programming and social initiatives.
Some of St. John’s community initiatives include the soup kitchen (which serves roughly 25,000 meals annually), the distinguished Cathedral School (which prepares young students to be future leaders), Adults and Children in Trust (a renowned preschool, afterschool and summer program), and the outstanding Textile Conservation Lab (which preserves world treasures). The Cathedral also organizes several yearly concerts, exhibitions, performances and civic gatherings to allow for conversation, celebration, reflection and remembrance—such is the joyfully busy life of this beloved and venerated Cathedral.

Quantitative Genomics Training

July 7-8, 2025 | Livestream, virtual training
The Quantitative Genomics Training is a two-day intensive training of seminars and hands-on analytical sessions to provide an overview of concepts, methods, and tools for whole-genome and transcriptome analyses in human health studies.
This two-day intensive workshop will provide a rigorous introduction to several different techniques to analyze whole-genome sequencing and transcriptome data. Led by a team of experts in statistical genomics and bioinformatics, who have developed their own methods to analyze such data, the training will integrate seminar lectures with hands-on computer lab sessions to put concepts into practice. The training will focus on reviewing existing approaches based on predicted expression association with traits, colocalization of causal variants, and Mendelian Randomization, including discussion on how they relate to each other, and their advantages and limitations. Emphasis will also be given to reviewing integrative sequence-based association studies for whole-genome sequencing data, and functional annotation of variants in noncoding regions of the genome.
By the end of the workshop, participants will be familiar with the following topics:
- Sequence-based association tests (Burden, SKAT and extensions)
- Functional genomic annotations
- Analysis of genomic variants in human diseases
- Transcriptome wide association tests (PrediXcan, MetaXcan, and extensions)
- Mendelian Randomization techniques
- Colocalization techniques
Audience and Requirements
Investigators at all career stages are welcome to attend, and we particularly encourage trainees and early-stage investigators to participate. There are three requirements to attend this workshop:
- Each participant must have an introductory background in statistics and genetics, and/or in the statistical analysis of genetic data.
- Experience using R is recommended to get the most out of lab sessions.
- Each participant should have a laptop with R/RStudio downloaded and installed prior to the first day of training. All lab sessions will be done using Posit Cloud (formerly RStudio Cloud).
Additional Information
- Subscribe for updates on new Training details and registration deadlines.

Sakura Park is a beautiful area full of cherry trees and serene views. We’re excited to partner you with our longtime gardener, Winston Johnson, to steward and show love to this area of Morningside Heights.
You will be gardening in Sakura Park and Claremont (across the street). Gardening can include weeding, raking, shoveling, pruning, and other laborious work. Please dress comfortably with closed toe shoes and clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty.
This project is not suitable for corporate or school groups! If you are a corporate or school group, please email caroline@riversideparknyc.org to set up a project.
