Dear customer,

During the Spring and early Summer, CSC is offering the following bioinformatics courses. Registration on the courses is currently open. In case you're interested in attending the course, please visit the course website for more information and on-line registration.

* DNA microarray (expression) data analysis *

Chipster is a new DNA microarray data analysis software developed at CSC. It builds on top of the statistical environment R / Bioconductor, and contains many tools not readily available in any other graphical data analysis software. See http://chipster.csc.fi/ for more information.

Introduction to Chipster, 7.4.2008 http://www.csc.fi/english/csc/courses/archive/chipster2008a

Microarray data analysis with Chipster, 16.-17.4.2008 and Microarray data analysis with Chipster, 9.-10.6.2008 http://www.csc.fi/english/csc/courses/archive/Chipster2008b

GeneSpring basic course, 29.4.2008 http://www.csc.fi/english/csc/courses/archive/genespring9

DNA expression microarray data analysis using R and Bioconductor, 5.-8.5.2008 http://www.csc.fi/english/csc/courses/archive/bioc2008s

* Protein modeling *

Protein modeling with Discovery Studio, 14.-15.4.2008 http://www.csc.fi/csc/kurssit/arkisto/coursepreview.2008-03-10.7378692772

* Statistics *

R is a free statistical software. It is extensively used in, e.g., genetics, ecology and sociology. We are running a basic statistics course as a preparatory course for the mixed modeling course to be arranged in the Autumun.

Basic statistics using R, 20.-23.5.2008 http://www.csc.fi/english/csc/courses/archive/R2008s

General linear mixed modelling using R, 1.-5.9.2008 http://www.csc.fi/english/csc/courses/archive/GLM2008
