Mining the Genome for Epigenetic Properties
Contact Student: Md Haque, mhaque@eecs.wsu.edu
Description: The objective is to use to Data mining techniques on Microarray data (Epigenetic) to identify genome wide Methylation changes. These changes are based on the effects of early developmental exposures to environmental compounds on epigenetic features and the potential for its transgenerational transmission.
Dataset: Microarray data based on Rattus norvegicus, Mus musculus
