About this Class

PLEASE NOTE: This 2 day workshop is  a BYOC (Bring your own LapTop Computer) class. In order to provide more flexibility with room scheduling we are experimenting with a new format that involves students brining their own laptop computers to the class. This has the advantage that you can continue exactly where you left-off following the class.  Government issued or personal computers are permitted. We will be able to supply a very limited set of computers, so if you want to take the class but cannot bring your own computer please indicate such in the Comment section on the registration form.

Bioinformatics Core Presentation  (Manjula Kasoji - CCRIFX)

  • Lessons learned and how to work with the core                               

Day 1 - PM (1-4:30 pm):  Hands-on  Microarray analysis using Partek Genomics Suite
(Xiaowen Wang, PhD - Partek)

Partek Genomics Suite Analysis Workflow

  • Process Cel files (RMA)
  • Looking at data distributions, histograms, bar plots, MA plots, etc.
  • Statistical Analysis (Anova)
  • Create contrasts
  • False Discovery Analysis
  • Making lists of significant genes
  • Venn Diagrams

Work independently on dataset

Day 2  AM (9:30-12):  Hands-on  Partek Genomics Suite Analysis and Partek Pathway 
(Xiaowen Wang, PhD - Partek)

  • Unsupervised Clustering
  • Custom Filtering
  • Pathway ANOVA
  • Work independently on another dataset

Day 2 PM (1-4:30): GeneSet Enrichment Analysis (GSEA)
(Alan Berger, PhD - School of Medicine Johns Hopkins University

GSEA is a computational method that determines which (if any) a priori defined sets of genes are   significantly differentially expressed, as an ensemble, between two biological states.  It is an open-source program developed by the Broad Institute:    http://www.broadinstitute.org/gsea/index.jsp

Lecture

  • The general approach of gene set enrichment methods and comparison with DAVID
  • How GSEA measures differential expression for each set of genes
  • Controlling effects of multiple comparisons in GSEA (false discovery rate)
  • The Broad Institute library of groups of gene sets (MSigDB)
  • What files and formats are needed for GSEA
  • User options and running GSEA

Hands-on

  • Loading the GSEA required input files for an example dataset
  • Using and choosing values in the GSEA GUI interface
  • Rank-based analysis
  • Full dataset analysis
  • Understanding the GSEA outputs and judging significance in the results 

Work independently on another dataset
