[stefano iacus <stefano.iacus@unimi.it>]

Computational and Statistical Aspects of Microarray Analysis II
June 7-11 2004, Bressanone, Italy

This 5 days, highly interactive advanced course (half way out to a  
workshop) is aimed at scientists that are already involved in analysing  
genomic data. The focus will be on analysing and interpreting DNA  
microarray data but other topics  will also be covered. Among these:  
visualization, machine learning and exploratory analyses will be  
emphasized.   Methods for quality control and for making use of  
biological  metadata in a structured way will be demonstrated.

Attendees should bring with them data, or specific methodological  
innovations that they want to work on in collaboration with the   
organizers and other attendees. Participants should have sufficient  
minimal background on biological, statistical and computational aspects  
of microarray data and preferably be used to the R statistical  
environment.

The maximum number of participants is 30.

The course will be given by:  R. Gentleman, Department of  
Biostatistics, Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, USA (member of  
the Bioconductor research project) and W. Huber, Department for  
Molecular Genome Analysis, DKFZ (German Cancer Research Center),  
Heidelberg Germany (also member of the Bioconductor research project).
