45038-01 - Lecture with practical courses: Analysis of genomics data with R/Bioconductor (2 CP)

Semester spring semester 2018
Course frequency Every spring sem.
Lecturers Lukas Burger (lukas.burger@unibas.ch)
Sarah Carl (sarah.carl@unibas.ch)
Florian Geier (florian.geier@unibas.ch)

Content The R/Bioconductor framework is the most widely used analysis tool for sequence based bioinformatics. The lecture gives an overview of typical Bioconductor based analysis pipelines including:
- Microarray and NGS data processing
- Differential gene expression analysis
- Working with sequence and annotation packages
- Programmatic access to public databases
- Visualization of genomic data
Each lecture is organized around one analysis question using publicly available data. It consist of 1 hour lecture and 1 hour hands on practical. Participants should bring along their laptops. Basic R knowledge is of an advantage.
Comments Each session consists of 1 hour lecture and 1 hour computer exercise.
