Computational Molecular Biology, aka
Algorithms for Computational Biology
Fall 2008
News and announcements
- All the non-programming exercises from Probability Exercises 3, which were delayed, are due in class on Monday, September 22.
- Unsure where to go: check the directions.
Overview
This course is a survey of algorithms and methods in computational molecular biology, with a strong emphasis on probabilistic methods. Topics covered include gene prediction, sequence alignment algorithms, multiple sequence alignment, RNA structure prediction, motif and pattern searches, and phylogenetic inference.
This course is a merger of Bio 5495/BME 537 Computational Molecular Biology, a core courser of the Computational Biology PhD program, and CSE587A Algorithms for Computational Biology, a CSE elective course.
