Description
How to use the tools publicly available for genomic and epigenomic data analysis? How to generate key figures from omic analysis?
Emphasizes the analytical methods for genomic and epigenomic data analysis. Presents step-by-step instructions for searching and extracting databases and performing pathway analyses on existing genomic and/or epigenomic data. Acquaints students with ‘omic’ data analysis by participating group project that aims for proving the principle or generating new hypothesis for a selected research topic.
