About the Machine Learning concepts and tools in Biomedical Research, Cheminformatics and Genomics Course

With the rapid growth of biological data from genomics, proteomics, and clinical studies, traditional analysis methods are often insufficient to uncover complex patterns. Machine learning provides powerful tools for classification, prediction, clustering, and biomarker discovery. R, being a leading language for statistical computing, offers a rich ecosystem of packages such as caret, randomForest, e1071, and Bioconductor for implementing ML workflows in biosciences.

This course provides a hands-on, dry-lab approach to building ML models using R. Participants will learn data preprocessing, feature selection, model training, validation, and visualization. Real-world biological datasets will be used to demonstrate applications such as gene expression analysis, disease classification, and predictive modeling, preparing participants for research and industry applications.
