Working seminar: Probabilistic methods in
bioinformatics
Date/Time: Thursdays at 2 pm, February 28, 2008
Location: IMA conference room, Lind Hall Room 409 (207 Church
Street SE)
Organizer: Christopher J.
Lee,
Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry, UCLA (Visiting
Faculty at IMA)
Purpose: to discuss challenges arising from the analysis of
massive
datasets such as high-throughput genomics or proteomics data,
and
probabilistic methods for analyzing them.
Chris will provide some useful introduction to various topics
in each
session, but leave the time open for informal discussion.
Initial discussion: Introduction to the
challenges of high-throughput data analysis in "post-genomic"
biology, and methods of statistical inference used to solve
these
problems.
