Functional analysis: the biology behind the genes

With the advances in technology, understanding the volume of information and giving it meaning is becoming increasingly challenging. We will utilize Gene Ontology and Gene enrichment, as well as Pathways, to interpret our data and unravel the meaning of our gene set. This introductory course will elucidate the biology behind the gene and clarify what your data means.

 

Objectives

  • Explain the basic concepts and terminology of functional analysis, such as gene ontology, gene enrichment, pathways, and networks.

  • Use online tools to annotate and analyze human and plant datasets.

  • Compare and contrast different organisms, including those without a reference genome, in terms of their functional analysis.
