Practical Course: "Software Tools for Computational Molecular Biology", WS2003


 
General Subject: Bioinformatik, Practical informatics
Tutors:
PD Dr. Olaf Delgado-Friedrichs, Tobias Dezulian und Christian Rausch
Time:
Wednesday 13:15-17:00
Amount: 4 SWS, allowable: 2 SWS
Location: Poolroom Sand 6/7
Home page: http://www-ab.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/teaching/ws03/tool/welcome.html
Description:
In this tutorial we want to look at several software tools that are widely used at the moment.
E.g.: Programs for sequence comarison (pairwise and multiple alignments, e.g. ClustalW, T-Coffee), programs for phylogenetic reconstruction (e.g. Phylip, Paup, SplitsTree), database search (e.g. BLAST, HMMer), vizualisation (e.g. CGViz), genefinding (e.g. genscan) and others.
Requirements for admission:
completed Vordiplom Bioinformatik, the lectures "Algorithms in Bioinformatics I and II" are recommended.

Remark: The course has started, no further participants may be admitted.
