After the course, the student can:
- compare sequencing and microarray technologies used in high-throughput
analysis and choose suitable ones for the analysis required.
- explain the principles of measurement technologies covered and how
various inherent errors and biases of the measurement techniques affect
the analysis.
- apply common methods and algorithms to extract information from
microarray and sequencing measurements.
- discuss the statistical principles underlying the data analysis
methods above and identify the benefits and weaknesses of each method.
- select suitable algorithms for the analysis and justify the choice.
- build data analysis pipelines for microarray and sequencing data
analysis.
