BIIN 4010 Computational Biology
Practical approach to the computer applications in molecular biology. Study of the representation and analysis of biological sequences and structural information, including the relation between sequences, structure, and functions of the macromolecules. Includes sequence patterns, probability techniques, graphics and simulations. Emphasis on the use of algorithms to align sequences, allowing the identification of genes and secondary structures. Requires work in an open laboratory.
