In order to have enough power, genetic studies need to be carried out at very large scales and usually require sample sizes larger than 10,000s. This poses biostatistic- and bioinformatic challenges at different levels. 'Large genetic studies in biobanks: from registries screening, to interpretation of GWAS and beyond' will cover challenges facing the use of…Continue reading Course: Large genetic studies in biobanks: from registries screening, to interpretation of GWAS and beyond

This course provides insight into methods for aligning biological sequences. Its goal is to present an overview of the basic concepts of sequence alignments and some of their applications with a strong emphasis on homology based multiple sequence alignment modelling, one of the most widely used method in biology.
