Functional Genomics
About the course
Practical examples will be taken from plant genomics, but the course is suitable for biologists in all fields. Topics of genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics will be covered. The course will concentrate on data mining and the use of bioinformatics for the analysis of genes and proteins.
Students will work web-based for the course to perform computer based tasks and prepare a seminar talk on one of the subjects. Students taking the course will meet at the University of Tromsø for one week (26.-29.03 2012), where lectures, student seminars and computer practise will take place.
Please send applications by e-mail to Karsten.Fischer@uit.no and a formal application form to the University of Tromsø by February 1 . Course teaching is conditional to a minimum of four and maximum of 10 students.
