Subject: Short course "Modern Programming in Genome to
Phenome”
Date: Wed, 08 Jun 2022 19:05:09 -0500
>From August 1 to August 5, 2022, the Animal Quantitative Genetics lab in the
Department of Animal Science at University of California, Davis is pleased to
announce a short course on “Modern Programming in Genome to Phenome”, by
Drs.
Hao Cheng (University of California Davis), Rohan Fernando (Iowa State
University), and James Chen (Virginia Tech). Several scholarships are
available to cover registration and travel expenses for graduate students who
attend a U.S. institution.
Topics: Learn to code for the genome to phenome analysis from scratch. The
following topics will be covered:
Genomic Prediction
1) Mixed-effects models with polygenic, maternal, and permanent environment
effects
2) Iterative methods for solving linear systems
3) GBLUP and Bayesian alphabet
4) Variance component estimation
Phenomics
5) Image matrix manipulation
6) Computer vision algorithms and applications
The workshop will provide an introduction to programming and how to use it to
code algorithms listed above from scratch for genomics to phenomics analyses.
The course consists of lectures and practical components with hands-on
exercises.
