  • About the webinar

    • Gene expression microarray analysis allows the investigation of genome-wide expression changes in health and disease and has become a major tool for discovery in medicine. Since the design, analysis, and interpretation of microarray experiments require specialized knowledge, this webinar aims to:

      • discuss general statistics issues
      • present the types of studies that can be conducted with microarray experiments
      • show potential pitfalls in the interpretation of microarray experiments
      • provide best-practice advice for experimental design, data processing, and data representation/visualisation
      • answer your questions live on air!

      The following Talks will be presented:

      • Study design:
        • General statistics (EVA FREYHULT, NBIS/Elixir Sweden)
        • Towards different biological conditions - what to think about (JESSICA LINDVALL, NBIS/Elixir Sweden)
      • Microarray analysis:
        • Microrarry tehnological platforms (MIHAELA MARTIS, NBIS/Elixir Sweden)
        • Quality control and DEG analysis (MIHAELA MARTIS, NBIS/Elixir Sweden)
        • Downstream analysis - How to see the biology in your lists (JESSICA LINDVALL, NBIS/Elixir Sweden)
