About the Course

Large-scale biology projects such as the sequencing of the human genome and gene expression surveys using RNA-seq, microarrays and other
technologies have created a wealth of data for biologists. However, the challenge facing scientists is analyzing and even accessing these data
to extract useful information pertaining to the system being studied. This course focuses on employing existing bioinformatic resources –
mainly web-based programs and databases – to access the wealth of data to answer questions relevant to the average biologist, and is highly
hands-on. Topics covered include multiple sequence alignments, phylogenetics, gene expression data analysis, and protein i...
