Outline and Purpose of the Course This course will be focused on providing the knowledge which are necessary to understand Genomic Medicine. The topics cover from basic genetics and genomics knowledge to novel analytical ways for understanding epigenetics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics. The course will be provided as a lecture by expert researcher of each research field.
Course Goals - Understand the basic concepts behind Genomic Medicine
- Learn experimental and statistical ways to analyze genomics and other 'omics data
Schedule and Contents The course is divided into three major categories (1) Basics of genetics, (2) Next generation sequencing technology, and (3) muiltiple omics approach. Reseachers who are the experts of those topics will give lecture. Three special topics related to human disease genomics, namely, functional genomics, genomics of multigene family, and genomics of artificial intelligence will follow them.
