Functional analysis using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (May 2026)

*Please register by Friday 22nd, May to receive a training account on IPA to use during the workshop.

This workshop will introduce you to Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA), a powerful tool that helps you make sense of your omics data. In this workshop you'll get a practical, hands-on introduction to how IPA can help you move beyond raw data and start uncovering the biological story behind your results.

What you'll learn:

• How to upload your data into IPA and run a Core Analysis

• How to identify relevant signalling and metabolic pathways and molecular networks linked to your gene/protein list

• How to explore potential upstream regulators, such as transcription factors, that may be driving your results

• How to look at downstream effects on biological and disease processes

• How to compare pathways and phenotypes across different experimental conditions

By the end of this session, you'll have a solid foundation for using IPA in your own research, whether you're working with transcriptomics, proteomics, or other omics datasets.

FAQs

What should I bring into the event?

This is an online workshop, so you will need to provide your own computer and have access to a reliable internet connection sufficient for video conferencing. A second monitor is highly recommended.

What prior experience do I need?

No prior experience necessary, this is an introductory level workshop.

Who should attend?

This workshop is designed for biologists and other life scientists working with biological data.

How can I contact the organiser with any questions?

You can email training@qcif.edu.au.

What's the cancellation policy?

Cancellations are accepted up to three working days before the start of the workshop. If you are a using a QCIF member ticket and do not join on the day without having cancelled beforehand, you may be blocked from attending any future QCIF training workshops.
