Bioinformatics workshop series

Presenter: Rolando Garcia-Milian, Bioinformatics Support Hub, CWML

Summary: Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) (UC San Diego/Broad Institute) determines whether a set of genes shows statistically significant differences between two biological conditions (e.g., phenotypes). From this session/workshop you will learn how to run GSEA on your own datasets using the GSEA desktop application. During the session we will use a tutorial dataset that will be made available to all the registrants

You will learn how to:

• Prepare your data and files for running GSEA.
• Use the Molecular Signature Database (MSigDB).
• Run GSEA analysis and the Leading-edge analysis and results interpretation.
• Send and visualize the results using the Enrichment Map app.

This session is suitable for both beginner and intermediate users of GSEA.

Prerequisites:

• Download and install the GSEA desktop version on your laptop.
• Download and install Cytoscape software
• A tutorial dataset will be made available to all registrants.
• You may also use your HPC account to access GSEA in Yale Open OnDemand.
