There is a strong interest in the scientific community to use public (GEO, SRA, TCGA, LINCS, etc.) omics (RNA-seq, scRNA-seq, microarray, proteomics, etc.) data for a variety of discoveries. This webinar, aimed at data scientists, bioinformaticians and similar roles in biopharma and academia, explores a comprehensive way of accessing and analyzing high-quality, expertly curated omics data via the QIAGEN OmicSoft APIs. These OmicSoft APIs provide a powerful and flexible platform for discovering, retrieving, filtering, analyzing and visualizing multi-omic data. You can learn how to access the OmicSoft APIs and programmatically leverage extensive metadata to perform custom analyses and identify targets of interest.

Topics to be covered in this webinar:

• Leveraging curated metadata to structure queries (metadata refers to cell type, tissue, disease, drug treatment etc., associated with public data)
• Finding multiple samples with the same metadata and creating cohorts
• Identifying expression and correlation
• Performing gene set enrichment analysis
• Testing cell specificity with custom aggregation
