Expression
microarray experiments generate large amounts of data, the analysis
and interpretation of which is not trivial. In this one-day course,
lectures covering important considerations in normalisation, analysis
and interpretation of microarray data are followed by a hands-on
practical workshop. The practical workshop utilises Bioconductor
microarray data analysis software, part of the open source R statistical
package, to highlight the principles of good analysis. We recognise
that course participants may be using various commercial and non-commercial
software packages to analyse their microarray data, but in the interests
of time and clarity we have selected Bioconductor as the hands-on
teaching tool during this course. Because Bioconductor is freely
available (http://www.bioconductor.org)
it can also be used by all participants for further study after
the course. The principles covered in the practical tutorials will
be applicable when using any software. The day concludes with a
review of the various microarray data analysis software packages
available. Please note, a separate DMMC Course on Microarray Experimental
Design runs in April 2007.
The
whole course (morning lecture and afternoon hands-on sessions) can
accommodate a maximum of 45 attendees.
