| The couse plan will be posted at the SYSDIET and NuGO homepages (www.sysdiet.fi and www.nugo.org). This introductory course in nutritional metabolomics will take the student through all steps in a typical study. This will include study design considerations, sample collection and handling, spectroscopic techniques for metabolic profiling, analytical quality control, data collection and preprocessing, data alignment and processing, statistical data treatments, and interpretation of the final data outcomes. A major focus is on the use of various free or commercial softwares for data alignment, data analysis, and data interpretation with hands-on training based on a case with samples collected by the students during the course. The course will finalize by presentations of reports generated by the students based on their own results from the case. | |||||||||||||
