OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
BDI Seminar: Variable Selection and Dimension Reduction methods for Omics Datasets
In recent years, new technologies have allowed researchers to perform multiple assays on the same set of patient samples. Typically these datasets contain observations of: genes (genomics), mRNA (transcriptomics), proteins (proteomics) and metabolites (metabolomics) and collectively are known as ‘Omics’ datasets. In this talk, I will discuss my research developing new methods in Bayesian and frequentist methodology for incorporating variable selection and dimension reduction for high dimensional Omics dataset.
