Dear all,
still a few places on our course " Genomics with R and Bioconductor"
Where: Free University (FU) Berlin (Germany)
When: 16-20 September 2019
Instructor: Dr. Ludwig Geistlinger - CUNY Graduate School of Public Health and Health Policy, New York (USA)
Registration deadline: August 20th
Course:
This course will provide biologists and bioinformaticians with practical statistical analysis skills to perform rigorous analysis of high-throughput genomic data. The course assumes basic familiarity with genomics and with R programming, but does not assume prior statistical training. It covers the statistical concepts necessary to design experiments and analyze high-throughput data generated by next-generation sequencing, including: exploratory data analysis, principal components analysis, clustering, differential expression, and gene set analysis.
Programme:
Session 1 – Introduction
Monday - 09:30 to 17:30
Lecture 1: Data distributions
random variables
distributions
population and samples
Hands-On 1: Introduction to R
Lecture 2: Creating high-quality graphics in R
Visualizing data in 1D, 2D & more than two dimensions
Heatmaps
Data transformations
Hands-On 2: Graphics with base R and ggplot2
Session 2 – Hypothesis testing
Tuesday - 09:30 to 17:30
Lecture 1: Hypothesis testing theory
