The course introduces tools of computer science that are relevant to bioinformatics, with a focus on fundamental problems with sequence data. Practical topics will include script programming (either Perl or Python), data management, and web services. We will see a basic overview of the necessary biology, but with most of our attention on computational issues.
Grades will be based on regular technical assignments (including some programming), a midterm, and a final exam.
