Functional enrichment analysis identifies biological trends in the data by assessing these lists against gene ontology and pathway information. T his can help interpret the experimental results in the context of larger b iological systems.\n\nThis workshop continues from our [introductory webin ar](https://www.biocommons.org.au/events/funct-enrich-webinar) and provide s a practical introduction to functional enrichment analysis. Using exampl e data you will get hands-on with some of the most commonly used databases and tools for over representation (ORA) and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and for identifying enriched biological functions in a list of gene s or proteins. We’ll focus on tools available online and in R.\n\nLead T rainers:\nDr Hossein Valipour Kahrood\, Bioinformatician\, Monash Genomics and Bioinformatics Platform\nDr Cali Willet\, Senior Research Bioinformat ician\, Sydney Informatics Hub\, University of Sydney\n\nDate/Time:\n20 - 21 November 2024\, 1 - 4 pm AEDT / 12 - 3 pm AEST/ 12:30 - 3:30 pm ACDT/10 am - 1 pm AWST. [Check in your timezone](https://www.timeanddate.com/worl dclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Biological+insights+from+omics+data+with+functio nal+enrichment+analysis&\;iso=20241120T13&\;p1=152&\;ah=3)\n\nLoc ation: Online\n\nFormat:\nThis workshop will take place over two sessions. You must attend both sessions in order to get the most out of the worksho p. \n\nOur trainers will introduce the concepts and guide you through hand s-on exercises to help you put your new skills into action. Some of the wo rkshop will use R/RStudio and we’ll start at a beginner friendly level. We will provide access to the tools and compute you need to complete the e xercises.\n\nWho the workshop is for:\n\nThis workshop is for Australian r esearchers and bioinformaticians working with omics experiments (e.g. RNA- Seq\, protein expression) that generate gene or protein lists.\n\nHow to a pply:\nThis workshop is free but participation is subject to application w ith selection. \n\nApplications close at 11:59pm AEDT\, Tuesday 5 November 2024.\n\n[Apply here](https://funct-enrich-workshop.eventbrite.com.au/)\n \nApplications will be reviewed by the organising committee and all applic ants will be informed of the status of their application (successful\, wai ting list\, unsuccessful). Successful applicants will be provided with a Z oom meeting link closer to the date. More information on the selection pro cess is provided in our [advice on applying for Australian BioCommons work shops](https://www.biocommons.org.au/workshop-applications).
