Description
Talks in this session address the design and analysis of experiments aimed at uncovering information about gene function through the use of microarray technology. The speakers in this session will discuss many important statistical issues including the efficient design of these expensive experiments, adjustments for multiple testing, proper accounting for random effects, and methods for gaining additional information by combining gene expression data with molecular marker data.
