PMMS 606 : Introduction to Personal Genomic Analysis, Genomics Laboratory, Part 1

This course introduces students to the analytical methods needed for a genetic evaluation of an anonymized human genomic provided by the instructors. This genome analysis knowledge is ultimately used to complete a Capstone Project (PMMSG 607). The objective of this course is for students to become familiar with the format in which a sequenced genome is provided and demonstrate the ability to use publicly available software to manipulate that genome sequence and search for the presence of health-related genetic variants.
