== [[666 Main Page|BIOSTAT 666]] Statistical and Numerical Methods in Human Genetics ==
Gene mapping studies aim to study the relationship between genetic variation and susceptibility to human disease.
These studies can be used to elucidate the biochemical basis of medically interesting traits leading to knowledge
that will, ultimately, help us improve treatment and management of human disease.
Biostatistics 666 is a Masters level course that introduces many of the numerical methods and concepts useful for
these types of study.
