Data and Molecular Analysis Techniques in Biomedical Research.

Catalog description

This course is focused on introducing statistical modeling and modern visualization techniques for biological data using R. It begins with foundational statistical methods (linear and logistic regression) and their visualization, then moves into approaches for analyzing and visualizing both continuous and categorical data. Building on these fundamentals, the course emphasizes visualization of specialized biological data types, including phylogenetic trees, RNA sequencing (bulk RNAseq), protein structures, and single-cell RNAseq data. Students will learn how to apply computational tools to interpret complex biological datasets in a clear, visual format.
