About

The Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) and Multi-Omics Approaches program is an intensive one-month course that offers comprehensive training in the methodologies and applications of GWAS and omics technologies. Starting with the basics of genetic markers and statistical analysis, the course quickly progresses to sophisticated data integration techniques and multi-omics strategies. The second part of the course focuses on multi-omics data analysis, teaching participants how to synthesize information from diverse biological layers to make comprehensive interpretations and predictions about phenotypic outcomes and disease likelihood.

Aim

This program is designed to delve into the complex world of Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) and multi-omics approaches, aiming to equip participants with the ability to conduct and interpret large-scale genetic studies. Through an in-depth exploration of genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic data integration, participants will gain the skills necessary to understand and influence the genetic bases of various traits and diseases.

Program Objectives
