Clinical Bioinformatics Credits: 3

Catalog description

Clinical bioinformatics will provide the foundation required for effective communication between computational, biological and clinical experts. This class uses a series of exercises to enable participants to independently perform gene and protein-based bioinformatics queries and analyses. Throughout the course, core biological principles are explained, as are the foundational technology and computational topics. Students will become proficient with public bioinformatics resources. This course will prepare students to apply the techniques to their research or participation in interdisciplinary clinical terms.
