Online Bioinformatics Courses

Jitendra Narayan — Wed, 17 Jul 2013 12:59:59 -0500

Bioinformatics is developing very rapidly. With new tools and software it is, now a days, easy to analyse the large scale genomics datasets. But we need to understand the background of software/tool to better explain the data computationally.

I found this online bioinformatics courses really interesting where they are covering the common algorithms underlying the following fundamental topics in bioinformatics: assembling genomes, comparing DNA and protein sequences, predicting genes, finding regulatory motifs, analyzing gene expression, constructing evolutionary trees, analyzing genome rearrangements, and identifying proteins.

Please paste other useful online bioinformatics courses links below if you know any others.
