The prerequisite(s) for this Teaching Unit (Unité d’enseignement – UE) for the programmes/courses that offer this Teaching Unit are specified at the end of this sheet.
Main themes
This course will cover the different biological analysis techniques that generate high-throughput data (so-called “omics” techniques), such as: DNA and RNA sequencing, proteomics, metabolomics... (non-exhaustive list which will be adapted according to the rapid evolution of this field).
For each method, the course will introduce:
Finally, the course will include an introduction to the databases that can be used in this field (TCGA, GEO, Encode etc).
For each method, the course will introduce:
- The operating principle of each method (sequencing, mass spectrometry, etc.)
- Analysis, processing and normalization of raw data
- Data interpretation and visualization.
- The biases and pitfalls related to these techniques (problems of technical and biological variability, reproducibility, experimental design).
Finally, the course will include an introduction to the databases that can be used in this field (TCGA, GEO, Encode etc).

Evaluation methods
The final grade consists of
The continuous assessment grade is fixed at the end of the semester: there is no option to receive a new grade for it during the second session.
The final exam is, by default, a written exam (on paper or, when appropriate, on a computer).
- 25% for the continuous evaluation,
- 75% for the final exam
