In what follows, _italics_ denote Bioconductor packages,
and `sansserif` tokens denote functions or classes

Day 1
=====

* Lecture 1: Pitfalls of genomic data analysis.
Complexity, poor design, batch effects. Vehicles for
avoiding some of the pitfalls with Bioconductor. Approaches
to systematic version control and literate data analysis.

* [Lab 1: Managing genomic annotation for human and model organisms](AnnotationLab/anno.Rnw.md)
+ [_OrganismDbi_](http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/OrganismDbi.html), `select`
+ [_GenomicRanges_](http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/GenomicRanges.html) and see [the recent PLoS CompBio paper](http://www.ploscompbiol.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pcbi.1003118)

* [Lab 2: Managing and using experimental archives](ArchiveLab/archive.Rnw.md)
+ General principle: `X[G, S]` is selection of genomic features `G`
and experimental samples `S` from archive `X`
+ Archive containers: `ExpressionSet`, `SummarizedExperiment`
+ Getting acquainted with some classic experiments
- Expression arrays
- Methylation arrays
- Genotyping studies
- NGS studies: RNA-seq, ChIP-seq
* Lecture 2: Statistical concepts for genomic data analysis
+ Exploratory data analysis
- distributions, density estimation
- scatterplot matrices
- PCA
- distances, clustering, silhouette
- Example: identifying batch effects
+ Hypothesis testing
- Two-sample problem: parametric, nonparametric
- regression/ANOVA
- censored response
- correlated response
+ Shrinkage concepts for high-dimensional data
+ Visualizations and reports: standard, "shiny", ReportingTools

* Lab 3: Statistical explorations of genomic data: interfaces
for exploratory multivariate analysis, machine learning,
multiple comparisons, enumerating significantly distinctive
features, functional interpretation of feature sets. [Early version.](StatsLab/stats.Rnw.md)

Day 2
=====
* Lecture 3: R and Bioconductor for high-throughput computing

* Lab 4: Case studies
+ Microarray differential expression
+ Differential methylation, _bsseq_
+ RNA-seq, _DESeq2_
+ ChIP-seq, _DiffBind_
+ Integrative analyses
