First semester

Omics Data Analysis

Objectifs

Explain how an organism functions at the genome level (DNA, RNA, protein, cell).
Identify omics approaches in epidemiology and clinical research.
Analyze associations between a genotype and a trait via a generalized linear model or via measures of allelic association.
Apply multiple testing or post-hoc inference to genomic data.
Analyze genomic data using supervised and unsupervised learning procedures.

Plan

Data presentation in genetic epidemiology, and omics data in clinical research.
(1) Class Comparison: GWAS, Differential Analysis for expression data – post hoc methods,
(2) Class Discovery: Analysis of DNA copy number data – segmentation, Evaluation indices, Mixture model, Gene network
(3) Class Prediction.
