(2019) Pathway and Network Analysis of -Omics Data
Date: 26 - 28 June 2019
The CBW has developed a 2.5-day course covering the bioinformatics concepts and tools available for interpreting a gene list using pathway and network information. The workshop focuses on the principles and concepts required for analyzing and conducting pathway and network analysis on a gene list from any organism, although focus will be on human and model eukaryotic organisms.
City: Toronto
Region: Ontario
Country: Canada
Prerequisites:
You will also require your own laptop computer. Minimum requirements: 1024×768 screen resolution, 1.5GHz CPU, 2GB RAM, 10GB free disk space, recent versions of Windows, Mac OS X or Linux (Most computers purchased in the past 3-4 years likely meet these requirements). If you do not have access to your own computer, please contact [email protected] for other possible options. This workshop requires participants to complete pre-workshop tasks and readings.
Learning objectives:
Participants will gain practical experience and skills to be able to: Get more information about a gene list; Discover what pathways are enriched in a gene list (and use it for hypothesis generation); Find out how a set of genes is connected by e.g. protein interactions and identify pathways, systems and modules within this network; Predict gene function and extend a gene list; Identify master regulators, such as transcription factors, active in the experiment. We will develop a unified analysis flow chart throughout the course that students will be able to follow after the workshop to conduct their own analysis.
