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.


The Course

We'll be back soon:

First class: Thursday, September 10. 2009

Organization

Dates
Lectures: Monday and Thursday, 12:00 to 13:00
Tutorial sessions: Mondays, 13:00 to 14:00   for in-class quizzes, quiz debriefings, exam preparation and other activities, as the need arises.
Location
MSB 2173 (Medical Sciences Building)

See the Course Web page for general information.

We are recommending Understanding Bioinformatics, Zvelebil & Baum, Garland 2008 as a background textbook for the course. (amazon, UofT Bookstore)

Grading and Activities

Activity Weight
(Undergraduates)
Weight
(Graduates)
5 Assignments (drop 1) 16 marks (4 x 4) 12 marks (4 x 3)
5 In-class quizzes (drop 1) 32 marks (4 x 8) 20 marks (4 x 5)
Group project 10 marks 6 marks
Participation 2 marks 2 marks
Graduate project   20 marks
Final exam 40 marks 40 marks
Total 100 marks 100 marks

I will not adjust marks towards a target average for the class ("Belling"). If your classmate gets a great mark because you helped him with a difficult concept, this will have no bearing whatsoever on your own mark. Collaborate as much as possible, it is a great way to learn. The only times I will consider adjusting marks is if we phrase questions ambiguously on quizzes or if I decide that the final exam was too long.
