Training

Ingenuity offers online training with our product technicians and web semimars presented by notable third parties.

Data Upload and Analysis

These sessions dive deeply into data upload and analysis in IPA. You’ll see how to rapidly understand biological processes most perturbed in your dataset, or across multiple timepoints or doses using the IPA Core Analysis. You’ll also get an introduction to functional analysis, significance calculations, and how IPA can help you understand the cause and effect of gene expression changes in your experiment. For all our other pre-recorded and written training materials please consult our Customer Portal.

Data Analysis: Part 1 Data Upload (1 hour)

This session is recommend for all new IPA users.

This session focus on formatting your own data and the best practices to analyze them in IPA. Topics includes:

  • Format the incoming data to be analyzed by IPA
  • Upload the data to be analyzed
  • Set filter parameters and other core setting options
  • Run analysis

Data Analysis: Part 2 Result Interpretation (1 hour)

This session is recommended for users that have a good understanding of the file format, upload and running a Core analysis or attended Part 1.

This session focus on the Core Analysis and the multiple ways of relating the molecules in your dataset to the body of information in the Ingenuity Knowledge Base:

  • Biological functions and diseases that are over-represented in your data, and the predicted directional effects on these functions and diseases.
  • Signaling and metabolic canonical pathways enriched in your data.
  • Predicted upstream regulators that might explain the changes observed in your data.
  • Molecular networks (algorithmically generated pathways describing potential molecular interactions in your experimental system)

Search and Explore (1 hour)

This session is recommend for all new IPA users.

Explore how IPA’s knowledge and discovery tools allow you to relate the most recent literature findings to your experimental data, create interactive and customized pathways using tools such as species/tissue highlights and complex searches, and help in hypothesis generation. For all our other pre-recorded and written training materials please consult our Customer Portal.

Getting Started with Ingenuity Variant Analysis

Ingenuity® Variant Analysis™ combines analytical tools and integrated content to help you rapidly identify and prioritize variants by drilling down to a small, targeted subset of compelling variants based both upon published biological evidence and your own knowledge of disease biology. We are offering different training media to help you get started and deepen your knowledge of the application. Our free online live events cover the basic and intermediate functionalities of the application. For all our other pre-recorded and written materials please consult our Customer Portal.

Part 1: Getting Started with Ingenuity® Variant Analysis™ (30 min)

This session is recommended for all new Ingenuity Variant Analysis users.

This introduction to Variant Analysis shows you which files you need and how to upload data and run an analysis. You will also learn specifically about the biological context and the basic functionalities of the genetic analysis filters which are unique to Variant Analysis and provide powerful ways to identify disease-causing variants.

Part 2: Analysis Interpretation and Advanced Functionalities (30 min)

This session is recommended for users that have a good understanding of the file format, upload and running a basic analysis or attended Part 1.

In this session, you will be introduced to the pedigree and clinical annotations as well as the use of custom annotations – both chromosomal and transcript level annotations. You will also learn how to change and edit the settings of your Genetic Analysis filter to incorporate the pedigree information along with a review of the filter cascade for an analysis that reflects your particular research needs.

Register for Part 1 & 2 using the links below. The Part 2 will start at the half hour mark if you would like to attend Part 2 only.
