Making sense of gene and protein lists with functional enrichment analysis

Do you have a long list of genes or proteins from omics experiments that you don’t know what to do with? This webinar explains how functional enrichment analysis can be used to understand what these lists mean by employing gene ontology and pathway information to highlight the underlying biology. We’ll discuss the statistics that underpin enrichment analysis methods and some of the most commonly used tools, databases and workflows. Speakers: Dr Hossein Valipour Kahrood, Bioinformatician, Monash Genomics and Bioinformatics Platform Dr Cali Willet, Senior Research Bioinformatician, Sydney Informatics Hub, The University of Sydney Who the webinar is for: This webinar is for Australian researchers and bioinformaticians who have gene or protein lists from omics experiments (e.g. RNA-Seq, protein expression). This webinar is presented by Australian BioCommons, Monash Genomics and Bioinformatics Platform and the Sydney Informatics Hub with the assistance of a network of facilitators from the national Bioinformatics Training Cooperative.
