BIOL 1410 - Genomics, Proteomics, And Bioinformatics

Institution:

University of Pittsburgh-Pittsburgh Campus

Subject:

Description:

The explosion of information in biology over the past few decades has led to the development of a new field called bioinformatics, which is closely aligned with the study of the genome (genomics) and the proteins it codes for (proteomics). This course will focus on the major bioinformatics tools used to explore the genome and proteome. The students will gain proficiency with these programs, in a case-based manner, which will not only teach them essential bioinformatics skills, but will also reinforce their knowledge of cell biology, molecular biology, and genetics concepts. Three hours of lecture per week. Prerequisites: BIOL 0101 required; BIOL 0201 and/or BIOL 1402 recommended.
