Description:
In this tutorial we want to look at several software tools that are widely used at the moment.
E.g.: Programs for sequence comparison (pairwise and multiple alignments, e.g. ClustalW, T-Coffee, Muscle), programs for phylogenetic reconstruction (e.g. Phylip, Paup, SplitsTree), database search (e.g. BLAST), visualization (e.g. CGViz), genome finishing, metagenomics (Megan) and others.
Requirements for admission:
This course is only for Master and Diploma students.  completed Vordiplom Bioinformatik, the lectures "Algorithms in Bioinformatics I and II" or "Bioinformatics I and II" are recommended. Knowledge of  Java and a scripting language (Python, Perl, bash, ...) is required.



Course language

The teaching language is German and English.
For written documents (hand-outs, protocols etc.) English is recommended.
