Analysis of Vibrio cholerae Microarray Data Part 1
- For the next section of the course, you will be introduced to the process we will use for the final projects in the course in a series of in-class and journal assignments where we will first analyze microarray data from Vibrio cholerae, and then learn how to create a Gene Database for this organism.
- The detailed instructions for the microarray data analysis we will carry out can be found on the Sample Microarray Analysis for Vibrio cholerae page.

- Keep an "electronic lab notebook", containing your methods, results, and interpretations of this week's portion of the Sample Microarray Analysis for Vibrio cholerae page in your "username Week 8" journal page. Although you will have assigned partner(s), you will need to fill out your own individual journal page.
