Applied Functional Genomics

Education facts

Code: 5BI212

The course follows on from, and extends, the theoretical course Functional Genomics Theory, 7.5hp (5BI211). The course aims to provide an introduction to the application of modern techniques and analysis methods relevant to functional genomics. The course is project based and the students will gain practical insight and experience in how to perform analyses of large-scale datasets generated using either sequencing, proteomics or metabolomics methods. Groups of two to four work together to analyse data and produce a poster presentation of the results, which is presented at the end of the course. Students are responsible for their own time management but are provided with teaching support as needed.
