REGISTRATION CLOSED This course would benefit people who pursue advanced R programing techniques for data science. We will provide information about key elements for data science and machine learning, including how to properly preprocess data, how to select meaningful features from the data, how to identify data clusters, and how to build a predictive model. We will then cover statistical test basics and provides semi-hands-on sessions on how to utilize the statistics for biomarker discoveries. Prerequisite: Fluency with R programming language. Please note that this is NOT a course to learn R; rather it is aimed at teaching R users best practices to analyze data. Registration is now closed.

Dr. Randal Kaufman from Sanford Burnham Prebys will be visiting UT Southwestern for a special seminar. His lab focuses on unraveling the fundamental mechanisms that govern protein folding and the cellular responses to the accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). By exploring the intricate processes of ER stress and protein quality control, Dr. Kaufman’s research has broad implications for understanding diseases related to protein misfolding, such as neurodegenerative disorders and diabetes. During his seminar, Dr. Kaufman will share his latest findings and discuss the impact of this critical area of cell biology.
