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
Co-Director, CCMBM EBSD Core
Senior Scientist, California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute
Adjunct Associate Professor, Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, UCSF

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.
