Single-cell sequencing and imaging technologies are being applied to primary human organs and to engineered cells and tissues to understand cell states that emerge in these systems at unparalleled resolution. These technologies require sophisticated experimental and computational methods, which we will discuss in practical detail in this course.

This course is an introduction to the wide field of Genomics. It addresses how fundamental questions in biological systems are studied using methods in genomics and how the resulting data is analysed to make quantitative interpretations of biological phenomena.
