Distance learning courses using R
The next online courses offered by the University of Manchester, UK, begin in March 2011. The courses can be taken as individual units, or for credits towards a Masters degree.
The modules running next semester include :
Mathematics for metabolic modelling
and
Introduction to microarray data analysis
'Mathematics for metabolic modelling' is a practical course, designed to help biologists to understand mathematical approaches to modelling biological systems. It is intended to prepare people for our advanced course in computational systems biology, which will run again in October 2011. Students are introduced to R, which is then used for the practical exercises.
In 'Introduction to microarray data analysis' course participants learn to use Bioconductor for the practical work (http://octette.cs.man.ac.uk/bioinfor...BIOL61010.html). This course includes an optional section on RNA-seq.
