Microarray technology, allows simultaneous evaluation of the expression of thousands of genes in different tissues of a given organism, and in different stages of development or environmental conditions. However, experiments with microarrays are still substantially costly and laborious, and as a consequence, they are usually conducted with relatively small sample sizes, thereby requiring a careful experimental design and statistical analysis. This paper adopts some applications of microarrays in risk analysis using R statistical software.engANOVABioinformaticsDesign of experimentsDNA microarrays technologySoftware Rbook part10.1007/978-3-319-18029-8_12
