Abstract

The technological advances and accumulation of biomedical datasets are yielding unprecedented opportunities to better understand genetic diseases, but necessitate proper exploration and integration methods to unravel a complete picture of biological systems.

In this mini-workshop, we will discuss the computational strategies we recently developed, using i) multilayer networks to integrate a large range of interactions, and associated exploration algorithms and ii) dimensionality reduction to extract biological knowledge simultaneously from multiple omics. On the application side, we will illustrate our approaches with the analysis of cancer and rare genetic diseases.
