As we step into the era of precision medicine, the need for extensive genomic data analysis is more pressing than ever. With the advent of high-throughput technologies, a plethora of genomic, transcriptomic, and epigenomic datasets from cancer patients have been sequenced, providing a wealth of data for systematic bioinformatics analysis. This workshop is tailored to […]
The application of omics (i.e., metabolomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, genomics) has become greatly popular in the life sciences. These technologies unlock the investigation of metabolism across thousands of genes, proteins, and metabolites, and provide a holistic perspective on the system of interest. However, to gather a systems-level understanding of biological functions in health and disease, omics […]

In order to make inferences based on genomic data, it is useful to understand the evolutionary forces that underlie observed genetic variation. The field of population genetics offers theoretical tools to test predictions, gain intuition, and even generate training data for statistical and deep learning models. However, population genetics simulations have historically been slow and […]

UCLA Health serves well over half a million patients annually, and as a result, UCLA possesses a vast database of Electronic Health Records (EHR). The stemming Discovery Data Repository (DDR) serves as an invaluable resource for researchers. This introductory workshop will cover the basics of writing queries to extract the relevant datasets for EHR-related research […]
