Course objectives
The aim of the course is to teach the students to analyze data from microarray experiments and mass spectrometry. The data analysis cover all the steps frp, pre-processing of raw data, including normalization to biological interpretation of results, by the means of advanced statistical methods.
Learning outcomes
After following the course, student:
Knows basic types of biological and medical questions in genomic and proteomic experiments;
Knows selected technologies that are sources of high-density genomic and proteomic data (types of DNA microarrays, arrayCGH, and MASS spectrometry);
Knows basic data types produced by genomic and proteomic technologies and their drawbacks from biostatistician's point of view.
Can list basic steps of genomic and proteomic data analysis.
Is aware of technological details of microarrays and MASS spectrometry that can influence data structure, quality and subsequent analyses.
Understands basic methods of quantification leading to raw data matrix and the necessity of further data quality control and normalization.
Knows specific, technology dependent sources of noise in the data.
Using graphical and statistical tools can identify this noise in the data.
Applies statistical methods to remove the noise from the data.
Is able to perform necessary and specific data transformations (normalization).

Applies hypothesis testing for detection of differentially expressed genes and proteins.
Knows basic statistics methods for class prediction and applies them to genomic and proteomic data.
Knows basic non-parametric data-mining techniques and applies them to genomic and proteomic data.
Knows positives and drawbacks of different prediction methods.
Applies MAQC II standards for creating classifiers from microarray data.
Selects and applies multivariate regression strategies which combine gene expression and clinical data.
Applies Cox-proportional hazards model for prediction of prognostic role of genes/proteins and Kaplan-Meier estimates between gene/protein expression based groups.
Knows principles and methods for gene sets analysis.
Knows basic principle and methods for gene network analysis.
Applies gene set analysis on a model example.
Knows public databases of genomic and proteomic data.
Knows Fisher Z-transformation and other basic meta-analytical concepts in genomic data.

Teaching methods
The lectures will be combined with practicals in R and its extension Bioconductor. First, the theory, concepts and methods are explained, then students can apply these concepts in data analysis of real examples. Several biological problems/projects will be presented at the beginning of the semester. Students will be divided into groups and each group chooses a project which will analyze during the semester and use it as a data model for presented application methods. In the second half of the semester, students will present their interim results in lectures.
Assessment methods
Final written test will consist of approximately 10 questions, scored by 20 points in total. This test will count for 50% of the final evaluation. Remaining 20 points will be awarded proportionally for the activity during the course (5 points) and for project elaboration quality (15 points). For successful completion of the course it is necessary to achieve at least 21 points and at least 10 points from the project. Students can use all the study materials, as the questions are designed to test mainly the knowledge of important general principles and capability of quickly applying the knowledge acquired during the course when performing real analysis.
