Fall is officially in session at UC Davis with the quarter beginning this month. In Davis, that means lots of new students learning how to ride a bike among other new things. For us, it means new prospective research projects, fall conferences, and the last four Bits & Bites short courses for the year. The fall quarter promises a vibrant lineup of events and prospects that you won’t want to miss, see important updates and dates below. | |
WCMC Metabolomics Courses | |
Our courses in metabolomics are tailored for researchers, postdocs, grad students, and scientists eager to deepen their expertise in metabolomics. | |
Bits & Bites 2024: 10-Part Short Course Series
(Jan. - Dec. 2024, Online)
| |
Join us for Bits & Bites 2024 — a flexible learning experience tailored for busy researchers seeking condensed yet impactful sessions. Now in its 4th year, this series continues to bridge the gap for those unable to commit to 1- or 2-week intensive courses. Craft your learning experience by selecting individual Bites à la carte or curate a comprehensive journey by mixing and matching courses for a fully immersive and well-rounded learning adventure. | |

Bits & Bites#07: Using MetaboAnalyst for Metabolomics Statistics and Data Visualizations
-
Date: Oct. 3, 2024
-
Instructor: Prof. Jeff Xia, McGill University
-
Required Software: Laptop with stable internet connection
-
Participant prerequisites: Basic knowledge of computer skills. No programming experience is necessary.
-
Level: Introductory
-
Short description of the course: In this short course, we will focus on mastering MetaboAnalyst 5.0, the robust platform for statistical analysis in metabolomics. Learn data input, preprocessing, and key analyses like PCA, PLS-DA, and OPLS-DA. Explore functional analysis techniques, and biomarker identification, and tackle complex metadata for robust statistical insights in metabolomics data.
