Course Overview

Welcome to BioMedical Genomics, a computer workshop for advanced undergraduates and graduate students. A genome is the total genetic content of an organism. Driven by breakthroughs such as the decoding of the first human genome and next-generation DNA -sequencing technologies, biomedical sciences are undergoing a rapid and irreversible transformation into a highly data-intensive field.

Genome information is revolutionizing virtually all aspects of life sciences including basic research, medicine, and agriculture. Meanwhile, use of genomic data requires life scientists to be familiar with concepts and skills in biology, computer science, as well as data analysis.

This workshop is designed to introduce computational analysis of genomic data through hands-on computational exercises, using published studies.

The pre-requisites of the course are college-level courses in molecular biology, cell biology, and genetics. Introductory courses in computer programming and statistics are preferred but not strictly required.

Learning goals

By the end of this course successful students will be able to:

  • Describe next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies & contrast it with traditional Sanger sequencing
  • Explain applications of NGS technology including pathogen genomics, cancer genomics, human genomic variation, transcriptomics, meta-genomics, epi-genomics, and microbiome.
  • Visualize and explore genomics data using RStudio
  • Replicate key results using a raw data set produced by a primary research paper

Quizzes and Exams

Student performance will be evaluated by attendance, three (4) quizzes and a final report:

  • Attendance: 50 pts
  • Assignments: 5 x 10 = 50 pts
  • Quizzes: 2 x 25 pts = 50 pts
  • Mid-term: 50 pts
  • Final presentation: 50 pts

Total: 250 pts

Assignment #2

  • The following is a portion of the dataset of Mycobacterium growth (kindly shared by Aswad from Dr Xie's lab). It shows OD (optical density) values. Transform this table ("wide" format) into the "tall/tidy" format (use paper & pen, no need to use R studio or any computer program):
Hour Control Gene Control.with.Arg Gene.with.Arg
0 0.06 0.022 0.031 0.01
4 0.087 0.102 0.082 0.081
8 0.113 0.185 0.086 0.135
  • In R studio, read the dataset from the file "FlowerColourVisits.csv" and save it into an object named as "flower"
    • Show head, tail, dimension of the data frame "flower"
    • Show data summary with "summary" & "glimpse" commands. Which column is a categorical data type?
    • Select the column named "colour"
    • Select rows from the 3rd to the 20th
    • Select the 3rd, 10th, and 20th rows
    • Select only the rows that have the colour of "red" (hint use colour=="red"
    • Create a new column, named "logVisit", that is log(1+number.of.visit)
    • Sort the "flower" data by the column "number.of.visit"
    • Perform the following data transformation using the chaining operator (i.e., "%>%"): Select rows from the 3rd to the 20th, then filter by colour of "red", and then show head
    • Obtain the mean number of visit for each colour as a group (Hint: use "group_by" & "summarise")
