| This course is a hands-on introduction to machine learning with Python for biologists with focus on genomics and evolution. It focuses on analyzing gene expression and experimental data. You will start with the basics, like preparing data and making graphs, then move on to practical tasks. Workflow of the Functional Genomics Center Zurich is used for the hands-on of next-generation sequencing data. We will also use Large Language Models (LLMs) as a powerful helper to make programming and data analysis easier. By the end of the module the students should be able to: -Understand concepts of NGS technologies -Understand fundamentals of data analysis -Design a research experiment and the data analysis involving biologically relevant issues affecting populations of plants or animals -Run machine learning analysis process -Understand basic bioinformatics of large datasets for practical use in genetic analyses | |
