An Overview of Design, Methodology, and Analysis

  • Protocol
Book cover Microarray Data Analysis

Part of the book series: Methods in Molecular Biology™ ((MIMB,volume 377))

Abstract

Microarray analysis results in the gathering of massive amounts of information concerning gene expression profiles of different cells and experimental conditions. Analyzing these data can often be a quagmire, with endless discussion as to what the appropriate statistical analyses for any given experiment might be. As a result many different methods of data analysis have evolved, the basics of which are outlined in this chapter.
