CCMBM EBSD Core Workshop - Gene Expression Analysis of Musculoskeletal Traits
June 18, 1:00-2:00pm; Mission Bay, MH-2100

In this workshop, participants will learn about concepts involved in the analysis of transcriptome-wide gene expression data generated by RNA sequencing. Concepts and methods to be covered include:

Data format and organization

Data quality control

Experimental design

Differential expression analysis

Graphical display of results

Gene set enrichment analysis

Laboratory methods for generation of gene expression data will not be covered. Participants can apply these concepts to gene expression studies of human and non-human samples. We will highlight the use of gene expression data from the Study of Muscle, Mobility, and Aging (SOMMA).

This workshop will be presented by:

Dan Evans, PhD, MPH

Safeguarding Public Data: Rescuing Federal Research Datasets

Since early 2025 several federal research datasets have been altered or deleted in response to executive orders from the White House. These actions have raised significant concerns about the accessibility and integrity of government data. For example, in February, several datasets from the US Census Bureau suddenly became unavailable, and others from the CDC were removed and then later restored. In this presentation, we will explore the latest developments in data censorship and the current efforts to rescue and preserve government datasets. You’ll learn about the organizations that have worked to preserve data, alternative sources of government data, and how you can get involved to protect valuable public information.
