About This Course
Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Detection and Analysis teaches the workflow behind one of genetics’ most important markers. You learn how SNPs are called from sequencing data, filtered for quality, and annotated, then interpreted for their functional and association significance across research and applications like breeding and disease genetics. The course connects the computational pipeline to real genetic questions. You finish able to run and interpret a SNP detection-and-analysis workflow. A verified e-Certificate of competency and e-Marksheet from the Deep Science & Technology Consortium.
