Lecturer:	Huson, Dezulian, Kloepper
Amount:	2 SWS
Ranges:	recommended for students in the 4th semester of bioinformatics
Test subjects:	Vordiplom
Dates:	Tue, 09:00 st. - 10:00, Room A 302, Sand 1

Starts:	Tue, 12. April 2005
Preliminary discussion:	Tue, 12. April 2005

Description:

Selected topics in Bioinformatics will be prepared by the participants and each one presented during a session.

Literature:

Will be announced during the first session.

Comments:

The studends are supposed to work out and perform a approx. 35 min. presentation to a given topic based on the given literature.
In case of problems during the preparation the students should contact their tutor for help. One week before the presentation the student has to hand out a pre-version of the required 10 page report (a summary of the topic in style of a scientific publication) and the final version of the slides.
The report should describe and discuss the topic logically, didactically, and structured.
