Designing microarray experiments

微阵列是同时测量数千个基因表达水平的有力工具。 它们属于新的基因组学技术，在生物、制药和农业科学中具有重要的应用。 在微阵列实验中有许多不确定性的来源，良好的统计设计对于确保科学家感兴趣的效果被准确和精确地测量是必不可少的。 该项目将为微阵列实验开发新的设计，并专注于对澳大利亚技术研究成功至关重要的主题的进步。

Microarrays are powerful tools for surveying the expression levels of many thousands of genes simultaneously. They belong to the new genomics technologies which have important applications in the biological, pharmaceutical and agricultural sciences. There are many sources of uncertainty in microarray experimentation and good statistical designs are essential for ensuring that the effects of interest to scientists are accurately and precisely measured. This Project will develop novel designs for microarray experiments and focus on the advancement of topics crucial to Australia's success in technological research.
