SPECIAL TOPICS IN BIOINFORMATICS

This is a 3-credit discussion-based graduate course that acquaints the students with the latest developments in bioinformatics analysis and algorithms. It runs in conjunction with the Vancouver Bioinformatics User Group (VanBUG) Seminar Series (http://vanbug.org), in which the students will have an opportunity to meet and discuss their work with both local and international guest speakers. During this course, students will prepare presentations (individually and in groups) on recent papers in bioinformatics, genomics and proteomics.
