Learning Outcomes
- articulate an understanding of the “‘omics-based” technologies.
- explain how omics-based approaches can be applied to address specific research questions in specific disciplines and distinguish between research questions that are and are not appropriate for such an approach.
- manipulate datasets generated through omics analysis using the appropriate computational algorithms.
- critically evaluate the approach of other researchers and comment on strengths and weaknesses.
- articulate how omics-based approaches have transformed society through advancements in science.
- critically evaluate published omics research by assessing experimental design, analytical approaches, and interpretation of results, and apply omics methodologies to independent research questions relevant to their thesis work.
