This practical course is specifically intended to give life scientists training on how to optimally explore and use protein interaction and pathway bioinformatics resources, including a very brief introduction to Cytoscape. This course looks at the actual data repositories (primarily IntAct (www.ebi.ac.uk/intact) and Reactome www.reactome.org)) and the resources and tools available to explore and analysis large datasets.
Audience
PhD students, post-Docs or anyone with an interest in the subject
Modules and Resources
During this course you will learn about:
- Interactions & Pathways
Learning Objectives
After this course you should be able to:
- Understand what is to be found in a molecular interaction database, alternative data formats and the various tools designed to work with them
- Have learnt how to explore reactions and pathways
- Gained some familiarity with specialised tools, such as analysis of expression data
