Description |
|
The dramatic rising of data being generated by high-throughput technologies, such as microarrays, ChIP-chip, ChIP-Seq data are opening a new universe of problems that will certainly provide great challenges in the coming years. The theme of the School: Biological Sequence Analysis and High Throughput Technologies will describe and highlight a few of techniques and methods for the data analysis in the era of the Personalized Genomics. The main lectures will focus on the following key topics: methods for high-throughput and parallel sequencing, data Integration and knowledge inference from high-throughput Genomic Experiments. Three special lectures will survey applications in the field of human diseases and cellular development. A series of tutorial will be also given, with the intent to complement the main lectures. These will provide snapshots of other areas that are perceived of relevance to the theme of the School. They range from introductory topics to sequence analysis to structural biology. As it is clear from the enclosed abstracts and bibliography, the selected themes have received much attention in the scholarly literature that ranges from Science, Nature, to BMC Bioinformatics, NAR and Bioinformatics. As a whole, the planned summer school will allow young researchers interested in bioinformatics and biomedicine to be exposed to cutting edge results in an area that is among the most exciting in Post-Genomic Biology. |
