Dr. Sonja Hänzelmann and Dr. Fabian Hausmann, Institute of Medical Systems Biology, UKE

In diesem intensiven 3-tägigen Kurs werden Sie in die Welt der Data Literacy (Die Fähigkeit, kompetent mit großen Datenmengen umzugehen) eingeführt. Der Kurs bietet eine praxisnahe Herangehensweise an biomedizinische Probleme, bei denen die Teilnehmer:innen lernen, wie sie relevante Erkenntnisse aus komplexen Datensätzen gewinnen können.

Topics:
Grundlagen der Dateninterpretation und Data Literacy: Verständnis von Schlüsselbegriffen und Konzepten im Bereich Data Literacy
Python für die Datenanalyse: Einführung in die Programmiersprache Python für Datenanalyse und -manipulation
Einführung in Data Mining-Techniken: Überblick über verschiedene Data Mining-Methoden und ihre Anwendungen im biomedizinischen Bereich.
Praktische Anwendung von Clustering, Klassifizierung und automatischer Mustererkennung
Anwendung auf biomedizinische Probleme: Bearbeitung eines ausgewählten biomedizinischen Problems durch ein Gruppenprojekt
Visualisierung und Interpretation der Ergebnisse: Effektive Kommunikation von Analyseergebnissen durch Datenvisualisierung
Interpretation und Diskussion der gewonnenen Erkenntnisse im biomedizinischen Kontext

This workshop is for students, researchers, and clinicians keen to learn the R programming language and data analysis relevant to biomedicine. The course is designed to be practical and comprehensive with no specific background requirements. We will focus on fundamentals of data analysis with examples of real-life data in biomedicine, such as gene expression. By the end of the course, participants will be familiar with the essentials of data analysis, including statistical tests, linear regression, principal component analysis, clustering and data visualization. The workshop will be in presence and therefore each participant should bring their own laptop (no ipads).

Topics:
Basics of R programming language
Statistical tests
Linear regression
Principal component analysis (PCA)
Clustering
Data visualization

This workshop is open to students, researchers, and clinicians keen to learn the essentials of machine learning and implementing it via Python. The aim of the course is to provide a comprehensive map of machine learning (and deep learning) methods with no specific background requirements. A little background in python can be helpful, though. We will focus on fundamentals of machine learning, validation methods, linear and nonlinear models, and feature reduction. The students will also get familiarized with the Python packages of Sci-kit Learn and Pytorch. The workshop will be in presence and therefore each participant should bring their own laptop (no ipads).

Topics
Types of machine learning: supervised and unsupervised
Validation  metrics and cross validation
Introduction to linear and nonlinear models include: Linear regression, Random forest, support vector machines, deep neural networks.
Feature reduction.
Regularization.

learn_bAIome offers workshops and trainings in biomedical AI/data science with tailored formats that take into account background, programming skills and intensity to provide unique, focused, and effective courses. These courses are free and open to students, clinicians, and researchers across academic institutions in Hamburg.

This workshop is open to students, researchers, and clinicians wanting to learn how machine learning is applied for biomedical datasets, the different classes of machine learning algorithms that may be used, as well as the best practices in selecting and evaluating algorithms, and their limitations.  The aim of the course is to provide concepts and tools to navigate the use of machine learning in the biomedical landscape. The course will use biological datasets and there will be hands-on components as well as discussions. Participants should already have taken an introduction to machine learning and be familiar with Python programming. The workshop will be in presence and therefore each participant should bring their own laptop (no ipads).
