Objectives
This Special Course has rotating topics giving the student an opportunity to get familiar with a specific area of health technology. After completing this course in 2024, the student will be able to:
• describe broadly the technology of high-throughput sequencing
• name some applications of genome sequencing and RNA-sequencing
• describe different levels of DNA variation in human
• describe some consequences for different kinds of variants
• find variant data using the Ensembl genome browser
• perform a small-scale analysis of variant consequences and their predicted effects using Ensembl tools and a list of variant positions in the genome
