About the Course

This course introduces you to the basic biology of modern genomics and the experimental tools that we use to measure it. We'll introduce the Central Dogma of Molecular Biology and cover how next-generation sequencing can be used to measure DNA, RNA, and epigenetic patterns. You'll also get an introduction to the key concepts in computing and data science that you'll need to understand how data from next-generation sequencing experiments are generated and analyzed. This is the first course in the Genomic Data Science Specialization....

Thanks to everyone who made this. Such can wait to start the second course. h a superb course; it started slowly and sort of an easy thing, but the last lecture was phenomenal

This course had gave me the overview of the statistical analyses for genomic data analysis. This is useful for me as I can employ those statistical Analyses knowledge in the near future

It was fun, however, the part with the project was toughest and I think I need to be more prepared to handle such tasks

Nice overview of the genomic technologies. Explanations about the bases are great but maybe a little old for the 20's.

The last assignment, reading a scientific paper was quite lame. And, the course needs to be updated - it six year old.

it was interesting course but the part of statistics was severely complicated and should be taught in simple language.

Time of each video is limited, so lots of content are just mentioned without going deeper. Just a introductory course.

The course instructors are very knowledgeable. One just has to take his time to grasp all the concepts, no rush.
