Institution:

Cabrini University - Closed

Subject:

Biology

Description:

Bioinformatics is the study of genes and their function and strives to characterize the complete genetic makeup of a wide array of organisms. Applications of bioinformatics range from basic cell and molecular biology, to evolutionary biology, structural biology, pharmacology, human genetics and forensics. Students will gain hands-on experience with DNA manipulation computer software techniques, using the process of genome sequencing, basic bioinformatics tools used to analyze genes and genomes, as well as current methods for analyzing protein function (Fly-Trap analysis) that has been enabled by the completion of the Drosophila melanogaster genome.
