Course description
Advanced Bioinformatics equips the student with the interdisciplinary knowledge and skills necessary to meet the data-centred challenges and demands of modern-day biology, with emphasis on genomics. Methods and algorithms for uncovering patterns in biological data of different forms are discussed, and in several cases developed, implemented and applied to representative problems. The student develops both theoretical and practical skills, allowing them to solve real bioinformatics problems by computer programming.
