Enrolment guidelines This is a specialised course. This means that 80% of the seats are reserved to PhD students enrolled at the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at UCPH and 20% of the seats are reserved to PhD students from other Danish Universities/faculties (except CBS). The course is free of charge for PhD students at Danish universities (except Copenhagen Business School), and for PhD Students from NorDoc member faculties. All other participants must pay the course fee. Anyone can apply for the course, but if you are not a PhD student at a Danish university, you will be placed on the waiting list until enrollment deadline. This also applies to PhD students from NorDoc member faculties. After the enrollment deadline, available seats will be allocated to applicants on the waiting list. Learning objectives A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to: 1. Knowledge: develop an understanding of the basic methods, technologies, and interpretation of applied OMICS analyses. This includes the impact of genomic variation on health and disease; epigenetic regulation; the principles and applications of transcriptomic profiling of tissues, as well as the characteristics and applications of tissue and plasma proteomics, metabolomics, and lipidomics. In addition, a basic understanding of core bioinformatics concepts including data integration and visualization. 2. Skills: critically evaluate and interpret findings from studies using the OMICS technologies covered in the course and the principles behind an appropriate and methodologically sound design for a study applying OMICS approaches. 3. Competences: to independently integrate knowledge and methodological skills to design, assess, and communicate OMICS-based research and to critically appraise study quality and translational potential. Content The course builds on the foundational concepts introduced in Introduction to Omics for Clinical Researchers, Part 1. However, it can also be taken independently, depending on the participant’s prior knowledge and academic needs. The course focuses on the integration, application, and clinical translation of OMICS research. The curriculum includes discussions of genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, lipidomics, and microbiome research. Participants Participants must be enrolled as PhD students at the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen.
