Bioinformatics BootCamp for Postdocs: Affymetrix / Illumina Microarray data analysis using R/Bioconductor (7.11.17)

This is part of our "Bioinformatics BootCamp" series.

Workshop Description: The course is a general introduction to Microarrays and the use of R/Bioconductor to carry out microarray data analysis. Following introduction the workshop starts with hands‐on exercise on how to install R and Bioconductor GUI packages. The course is mainly based on the use of Bioconductor open source packages for analyzing single channel and two channel data sets. Only basic R coding will be introduced since all the analysis are performed using OneChannelGUI, a graphical interface to Bioconductor tools, designed for life scientists who are not familiar with R language. Students will learn how to carry out the following; Quality control, Normalization, Filtering, Statistical analysis, and Differential expression.

The c3 Bioinformatics team, in conjunction with theHMS/HSDM Office for Postdoctoral Fellows, is offering 2017 Summer Bioinformatics Bootcamp. The hands-on workshops will be held between June 08 and August 30, 2017

Bootcamp completion certificate is awarded for those who attend at least 70 % of the workshops.
