Description:
This hands-on course will provide a big-picture overview of various steps involved in analyzing microarray data. We will start with an overview of microarray technology and differences between different types of arrays. Then we will use pre-compiled datasets and open-source, free software tools to illustrate the various steps in an analysis pipeline, importing the data, quality control, differential expression analysis and biological interpretation.
Students interested in more detail (Bioconductor packages, ANOVA for multiple groups, class prediction) are invited to consider Advanced Microarray Analysis Using R/Bioconductor.
