Learn what Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) and the Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB) offer researchers for analyzing gene expression changes in cancer research.

 

Dr. Anthony Castanza, from the UC San Diego Mesirov Lab, will:

  • give an overview of the GSEA computational method.
  • discuss best practices for analyzing various types of input data.
  • explore MSigDB gene set collection resources for analyzing both human and mouse model organism data.
  • highlight artificial intelligence features that help you interpret GSEA results.
