CLRES 2707 - BIOINFORMATICS RESOURCES- DATA MINING

Minimum Credits: 1
Maximum Credits: 1
Over the past decade, the emergence and rapid advance of genomic and proteomic technologies have generated copious amounts of data and web-based bioinformatics resources. Use of bioinformatics databases and software tools are the key for success in both basic science and translational research, as they guide researchers in formulating a new hypothesis, designing studies to test their hypothesis, and interpreting and validating their experimental results. This course will introduce students to real-life examples of the use of bioinformatics tools in research. It will teach efficient identification of appropriate bioinformatics databases and software ADN the effective application of these resources to solve scientific questions. This course is offered in a computer classroom, thereby providing hands-on training for solving bioinformatics queries using web-based tools. Homework will be assigned to reinforce the concepts presented during each class. A final project will promote integration of the bioinformatics resources introduced throughout the course.
