Computational and Statistical Aspects of Microarray Analysis II June 7-11 2004, Bressanone, Italy This 5 days, highly interactive advanced course (half way out to a workshop) is aimed at scientists that are already involved in analysing genomic data. The focus will be on analysing and interpreting DNA microarray data but other topics will also be covered. Among these: visualization, machine learning and exploratory analyses will be emphasized. Methods for quality control and for making use of biological metadata in a structured way will be demonstrated. Attendees should bring with them data, or specific methodological innovations that they want to work on in collaboration with the organizers and other attendees. Participants should have sufficient minimal background on biological, statistical and computational aspects of microarray data and preferably be used to the R statistical environment. The maximum number of participants is 30. The course will be given by: R. Gentleman, Department of Biostatistics, Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, USA (member of the Bioconductor research project) and W. Huber, Department for Molecular Genome Analysis, DKFZ (German Cancer Research Center), Heidelberg Germany (also member of the Bioconductor research project).
