Description

Bioinformatics: Introduction to bioinformatics

Instructor: Sami Khuri, San José State University

Evaluation: final exam, homework, exercises

Prerequisites:                                   

·         Interest in biology

 

The need to understand the immense amount of data produced by large scale DNA sequencing is of paramount importance. Demands for sophisticated analysis of biological sequences are the driving force behind the rapidly expanding research area of bioinformatics.

 
This practical course provides an introduction to the main public domain tools, databases and methods in bioinformatics, including DNA and protein databases, such as Genbank and Swiss-Prot, software tools such as those at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) and other web accessible applications.
