Description |
|
| AMIA is offering a 10x10 distance learning course with Stanford University entitled: Methods for Bioinformatics- Representations and Algorithms for Computational Molecular Biology This course will introduce the basic computational issues and methods used in molecular biology though a series of core lectures. At the completion of the course, participants will have a basic understanding of how various computational algorithms have been used to solve key biological problems by the manipulation of biomedical data sources. The course will introduce and use biological data sources available on the internet. Topics will include basic algorithms for alignment of biological sequences and structures, as well as more advanced representational and algorithmic issues in structure and sequence computation. These include, for example, dynamic programming algorithms for alignment, structural superposition algorithms, computing with distance information, 3D motif definition and computation, hidden Markov models, phylogenetic trees, statistical feature detection, genetic algorithms, design of data resources, automated analysis of biological literature, database integration, and collaborative environments for supporting biology The cost of this course is $2,500. |
