Course map

Bulk Transcriptomics

Counts → differential expression → enrichment → networks. Where most people start.

Single-cell & Spatial

Heterogeneity at the resolution of single cells and tissue coordinates.

Population Genetics & Genomics

From DNA variation to disease causality — a different mindset from expression.

Proteomics & Multi-omics

Measuring proteins, and stitching many omics into one picture.

Epigenomics & Gene Regulation

Answers 'who regulates these genes' — four ways to use ChIP-Atlas.

Clinical & Biostatistics

Making conclusions survive statistical scrutiny — where beginners stumble most.

Experimental Design & Molecular Biology

No analysis rescues a bad design — understand how data is born at the bench.

Databases, Literature & Drug Discovery

Discovery built on public data and existing knowledge — landing on targets and the clinic.
