Course description

Statistical genomics is the application of statistical methods to understanding genomes, their structure, function and evolutionary history, in many different scientific contexts, include: understanding biological mechanisms in health and disease, predicting outcomes and identifying individuals and their relatedness. The course will also cover aspects of Genomic epidemiology, an overlapping field in which statistical genomics methods are used with family or population data to study causes of disease. This course is part of the Biostatistics Collaboration of Australia. If you are not enrolled in a Biostatistics Program at UQ, please contact the Program Director, Dr Michael Waller, to seek permission before enrolling.
