- Content and topics: 1)Image Processing of Biological Microscopy Images : Over the last years, medical advances have led to the identification of numerous tumor biomarkers, facilitating the understanding of the molecular basis of tumor progression and treatment response. 2)Construction and Analysis of Biological Networks During the past few years there has been an increasing interest in studying the underlying genetic/proteomic mechanisms behind the discovery of genetic interactions between molecules. This kind of knowledge is of great importance in many scientific areas such as clinical prognosis, diagnosis and treatment. 3)Pattern Recognition on Genomic data: Problem Formulation DNA Microarray Introduction to regression Feature Selection Filter Wrapper Embedded Validation Methods Results 4)Tools for Biological Validation of Statistical Results : INTRODUCTION TO BIOLOGICAL TERMS IDENTIFIERS/ACCESSIONS DATABASES DATA REPOSITORIES ENRICHMENT ANALYSIS and FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS TOOLS INTRODUCTION TO SYSTEMS BIOLOGY 5)Analysis of EEG and MEG Brain Responses The electrical activity of active nerve cells in the brain produces currents spreading through the head. EEG and MEG reflect brain electrical activity with millisecond temporal resolution, and are the most direct correlate of on-line brain processing obtainable non-invasively
