Advanced Topics in Microarray Analysis
Natcher Conference Center
Bethesda Md
January 22, 2003
Summary
Investigators are using microarrays as tools to generate new hypotheses about their systems and to find new therapeutic targets or biomarkers. However, investigators are completely unprepared for the onslaught of data that is generated. They do not know how to properly analyze the data nor do they fully appreciate the extent of the new information. The workshop will teach investigators advanced methods to analyze, to annotate, and to understand the results of microarray experiments.
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), and the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) are sponsors of this workshop.
