Epigenomics
Explore DNA methylation, chromatin regulation, epigenomic assays and statistical approaches to epigenetic data.
Know what you are learning—and why.
Explore DNA methylation, chromatin regulation, epigenomic assays and statistical approaches to epigenetic data.
Move through topics in a logical order rather than learning isolated techniques.
Build conceptual understanding before moving into procedures, calculations or code.
Reinforce learning through examples, exercises and practical applications.

7 modules. One coherent journey.
Work through the curriculum in sequence to build a complete understanding of Epigenomics.
Advanced study
This course is best suited to learners with relevant undergraduate-level foundations or equivalent practical experience.
Start where you are
No need to know everythingUse the course structure to identify gaps and build missing foundations progressively.
Work actively
Learning requires practicePause, calculate, code, explain and solve rather than treating lessons as passive video content.
Ask questions
Confusion is useful informationIdentify exactly where your understanding breaks down and revisit the concept or seek expert help.
Apply it
Move beyond examplesUse the ideas in your own problems, assignments, projects, analyses or research.
From explanation to independent application.
The goal is not simply to finish lessons. The goal is to reach the point where you can use the ideas without being guided through every step.
Understand
Learn the ideaStart with intuitive explanation and build the underlying reasoning.
See it
Use examples and visualsConnect abstract ideas to examples, diagrams, computation and interactive demonstrations.
Practise
Build fluencyWork through progressively more challenging questions and applications.
Apply
Work independentlyTransfer your learning to examinations, code, projects, research or real datasets.
Stuck somewhere in the course?
Use 1-to-1 tutoring when you need a deeper explanation, feedback on your understanding, help with a related university topic or support applying the method to your own work.
More in Bioinformatics.
Build on this course by continuing into related topics within the same discipline.
Genomics & Bioinformatics Foundations
Explore DNA, genes, genomes and how computers help scientists investigate biological information.
Sequence Analysis
Learn how biological sequences are represented, compared and interpreted computationally.
Linux & Biological Data
Develop the command-line skills needed to work efficiently with biological datasets and computational workflows.
