BCH441 - Bioinformatics
Welcome to the BCH441 Course Wiki.
This is our main tool to coordinate information, activities and projects in University of Toronto's bioinformatics course BCH441. If you are not one of our students, you can still browse this site, however only users with a login account can edit or contribute or edit material. If you are here because you are interested in general aspects of bioinformatics or computational biology, you may want to review the Wikipedia article on bioinformatics, or visit Wikiomics. Contact boris.steipe(at)utoronto.ca with any questions you may have.
