This course will contain the following syllabus:

  • Basics of genomic variation (Week 1-2)
  • Genomic technologies and methods (Week 3-7)
  • Methods for understanding the genetic basis of phenotypes (Weeks 8-12)
  • This Course will include lectures (40%), demonstrations and hands on data analysis sessions.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of this course, students will be able to:

  • Explain principles and applications of various genomic technologies.
  • Use publicly available resources for analyses of genomic variation.
  • Understand different models of genetic inheritance and analytical designs.
  • Apply their knowledge and skills to design relevant research experiments.
