- ‘Statistical Genetics with Mendel’, July 04-08, 2005, University of Pavia.
This training course was designed to provide specific training for research scientists who are actively studying the genetics of complex traits and was arranged as a five day intensive residential workshop on state-of-the-art statistical genetics methods for the detection of genetic loci for both qualitative and quantitative traits.
http://www.unipv.it/webdssap/upload/laboratori/statgen/mendel05/
The course covered the general theory behind the methods and the practical application of analysis, reinforced with hands on computer exercises using Mendel, SimWalk, and FBAT. Each practical session was focused on a particular topic and plenty of exercises and control file templates have been provided to the students. Reference to these examples can be found in the Mendel manual, the software used during the course.
The topics covered included; Study Design and other data issues, Mistyping Detection, Haplotyping, Analysis of Qualitative Traits including Parametric Linkage analysis, Non-Parametric Linkage, Family-based Association Testing and Case/Control based Association Testing, Analysis of Quantitative Traits including Variance Component Analysis and Association Testing
The Course instructors, were members of the Statistical Genetics Group within the UCLA Department of Human Genetics, Los Angeles, USA; Kenneth Lange, Steve Horvath, Jeanette Papp, Janet Sinsheimer, Chiara Sabatti and Eric Sobel. [Less]
