Introduction to Bioinformatics in depth: Genomic Data Made Accessible
What You’ll Learn
Analyze genomic and high-throughput data using computational and statistical approaches. Understand microarray and RNA-seq data, explore molecular databases, and apply sequence analysis methods like alignment, phylogeny, and annotation.
Hands-On Skills
Perform basic genetic analyses using R and PLINK. Work with real datasets – from HIV genes to mouse brain cells – to see bioinformatics in action.
Why It Matters
Gain practical skills to interpret complex genomic data and prepare for research or advanced studies in bioinformatics.
