Course Objectives | Following the dissemination of the first results of the Human Genome Project in 2004 life sciences researchers have access to genome related information (DNA sequence, protein sequence etc.) that would revolutionize the clinical practice as we know it. However this information is kept in various databases and in various formats so that one has to employ special algorithms and tools for the analysis. This course aims to provide an introduction to the terminology, problems, algorithms and tools related to bioinformatics, which is one of the hottest research topics of computer science recently. |
