Learning objectives
Functional Genomics is the field of molecular biology that is involved with assigning function and interactions to genes and their products and ranges from the detailed study of individual genes (forward genetics), large scale experimental approaches designed to capture global effects and interactions. The course in Functional Genomics" provides participants with deep knowledge about the latest genome wide and single gene approaches to study gene functions in model organisms. Teaching is especially focused on helping students gain the expertise required to decide which approaches and technologies to use to investigate biological pathways and the function of genes involved in them.

The development of several high throughput analytical approaches in molecular biology has revolutionized genomics. In particular, Next Generation Sequencing has wide application to many functional genomics settings.
