The Gladstone Data Science Training Program provides learning opportunities and hands-on workshops to improve your skills in bioinformatics and computational analysis. Gain new skills and get support with your questions and data. This program is co-sponsered by UCSF School of Medicine.

Join this course for an introduction to the basic concepts of biological network analysis and practical instruction on commonly used tools and databases, with a focus on Cytoscape to analyze and visualize biological networks. 

The course consists of theoretical and practical sessions in which you’ll learn how to perform different biological network analyses and how to visualize and interpret the results of your analyses.

By the end of this course you will be able to:

• Understand the major applications of network biology
• Find relevant sources for networks and pathways
• Import your data into Cytoscape
• Perform network layouts and data visualization
• Know where to find relevant Cytoscape apps and tutorials

Bring your laptop. Instructions on installing Cytoscape will be provided prior to the course.
