DESCRIPTION:This two day course will cover network-based approaches to visu
 alise and analyse complex biological ‘big’ data and model pathway syst
 ems.  The course will be centred on the use of [BioLayout Express3D](http:
 //www.biolayout.org/)\, a tool developed between scientists at the Univers
 ity of Edinburgh and EBI over the last 10 years.  \n\nBioLayout provides r
 apid and versatile means to explore and integrate very large datasets\, pr
 oviding a stunning interface to visualise the relationships between 10’s
  of thousands of data points. Originally designed for the analysis of micr
 oarray data\, it is equally effective in analysing data matrices from othe
 r analysis platforms. \n\nDay one of the course will introduce principles 
 of network analysis and their use as a generic medium to understand relati
 onships between entities. We will introduce the basics of network visualis
 ation and navigation within BioLayout and principles of correlation analys
 is of data matrices. We will then explore how data can be explored and clu
 stered within the tool and how you can use the software to rapidly extract
  meaning from large and complex datasets.\n\nDay two will focus on pathway
  modelling. We will explain how to collate information about a given syste
 m of interest from the literature\, and to turn this information into a lo
 gic-based pathway model. We will then explore how these models can be para
 metrised and imported into BioLayout where simulations can be run that mod
 el the dynamics of these systems under different conditions. For more info
