Dear all, 

We are pleased to announce the upcoming Physalia online course
"Introduction to Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS)", which will
take place 18-22 May.

Course website: (
https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/course49/ )

This five-day course provides a practical introduction to the full GWAS
workflow, guiding participants from study design and data preparation to
statistical analysis and interpretation of results. Through a combination
of lectures, discussions, and hands-on exercises, participants will
learn how to perform GWAS analyses and integrate the different steps
into a coherent and efficient pipeline.

The course combines conceptual lectures with practical sessions using R
and Linux command-line tools. Participants will explore key topics such as
linkage disequilibrium, linear and logistic regression models, exploratory
data analysis, genotype imputation, statistical power, multiple testing,
and the construction of reproducible GWAS pipelines. The final sessions
will introduce post-GWAS analyses and alternative approaches.

The course is intended for students, researchers, and professionals with
a background in biology or genetics who wish to gain practical experience
with GWAS. Prior experience with GWAS is not required.
