Learn how to perform data cleaning and statistical analysis of large scale genetic data using PLINK and R software. We will use SciNet to run the PLINK analytical workflow to perform markers and individuals quality control, including population stratification and ancestry followed by association analysis between genetic variation and trait of interest. R-software (basic R plotting and ggplot package) will be use to visualize the results.
