Functional Genomics & Data Analysis Workshop
July 9, 2008, 9:30 am - 3:00 pm, 152 Smissman, KU West Campus
This workshop is for investigators, graduate students and postdoc researchers in life sciences. It will cover microarray basics and recent developments, and major aspects of genomics data analysis. Topics on data analysis are also applicable to other high-throughput technologies, such as proteomics.
No prior experience on genomics is required.
