Annotation -
This course will present basic types of functional genetics data such as RT-qPCR data, DNA chips profiling data, and high-throughput sequencing data. Students will acquire information on how to preprocess, clean, and standardize data, and will be acquainted with specific statistical and exploratory data analysis methods used for multidimensional genomic data processing. Students will learn how to interpret data using gene ontologies, how to archive, and how to visualize data. During exercises students will practise gained knowledge on the real life data, and will master commonly used online resources and analytical tools.

Aim of the course -

Students will be able to:

  • Process RT-qPCR, DNA chips and high-throughput sequencing functional genetics data.
  • Validate experimental results using exploratory data analysis.
  • Use statistical methods to analyse and interpret functional genetics data.
  • Effectively design experiment taking into account caveats of individual experimental approaches.
