Short Course on Mathematical Approaches to the Analysis of Complex Phenotypes

July 16, 2003

The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, Maine
October 9 - 15, 2003

This short course focuses on mathematical approaches to studying complex diseases in humans using the mouse as a paradigm. The course covers a variety of topical diseases, including cancer, obesity and diabetes as well as diseases with an epidemiological component such as AIDS. The emphasis is on training both mathematicians and biologists in this increasingly important area. Biologists will walk away with a clearer understanding of the tools available for genomic applications and mathematicians will gain an appreciation of contemporary computational problems in modern genetics and applied genomics
