Revision as of 00:00, 9 March 2018
BCB410H1F - 2018
Objectives and Participants
The "Applied Bioinformatics" course is offered as a part of the BCB Program curriculum to ensure that our students know enough about application issues in the field to be able to put their knowledge into practice in a research lab setting. This is to support the Specialist Program goal: to prepare students for graduate studies in the discipline.
As a required course in the BCB curriculum, BCB410 assumes the prerequisites and goals of fourth-year students in the BCB Specialist Program. Other students may be permitted to enrol on a case by case basis, but they may need to catch up on prerequisites in computer science or life-science courses that BCB students have taken at this point. Generally speaking, this is an advanced course that presupposes familiarity with programming principles, algorithm analysis, and methods of modern systems biology, as well as introductory knowledge of linear algebra, graph theory, information theory, statistics, as well as molecular–, structural– and cellular biology. The varying topics will be discussed at a highly technical level that is likely only useful for students who plan to integrate much of this material into their actual practice.
Contents details will be updated closer to the beginning of the term.
Organization
Details for the 2018 course will be discussed in our first class session in September 2018.
It is imperative that you attend the first class session in person. Do not enrol in this course if you can't attend the first class session.
Further details to be announced here.

Coordinator
Office hours
(Virtual) face to face meetings are by appointment, if required. However, we will be able to resolve almost all issues by e-mail. You will find that discussions by e-mail are both more efficient and effective than meetings. Moreover e-mail discussions leave you with a document trail of what was discussed, can contain links to information sources, and we can share points of general interest more easily with the class.
