Default Bioinformatics for transcriptomics - an online course

The new methods for transcriptomics are bringing new challenges in
bioinformatics. This course from The University of Manchester, UK,
covers microarray data analysis in depth, and also introduces the areas
where new work is needed for next generation sequence (RNA-seq) analysis.
