Content

In this course, we explore new and important developments in bioinformatics. This can be driven by new technologies, new biological questions with a computational angle, or new methodologies. Typically, in the first third of the course we will cover the background and introductory material. We then study the new developments in detail in the second third of the course. In the final third, we discuss open problems and possible solutions.

Objectives

The aim of this course is to expose students to current research areas in bioinformatics.
