Short Course in Cancer Bioinformatics
United States - MI - Ann Arbor

Hosted by: University of Michigan Bioinformatics Program and MCBI

Dates: Aug 04, 2004 through Aug 06, 2004

Event Registration: 2004-06-22 through 2004-08-03
 
Description
 
Challenging intensive courses covering material from our regular graduate courses on computational biology in a format that is accessible to working scientists. Participants will become familiar with the theory and practice of molecular sequence analysis, proteomics, and processing and analyzing cancer biology data. The aim is to provide an appreciation for how and why different analytic approaches are used, their capabilities and their limitations. We emphasize the use of public domain software tools rather than focusing on a specific commercial package. Participants should be familiar with basic molecular biology and mathematics at the level of college calculus, but programming skills or higher-level computer science experience is not required. The courses are targeted to students at the level of a first or second year doctoral candidate and professional scientists in molecular biology or biotechnology.

- Cancer bioinformatics, biostatistics and data modeling, web tools and data mining

- Model organisms and cancer networks, cancer systems biology, integrative cancer biology

- Biomarkers, tissue microarrays, analysis of microarrary data, cancer proteomics
