The Clark Lab

Fri, 07 Feb 2020 13:57:24 -0600

Study the process of Adaptive Evolution, during which species adopt novel traits to overcome challenges. We retrace the evolutionary histories of genomic elements to determine the changes underlying adaptation and to discover previously unknown genetic networks. These discoveries have already led to advances in human health, species conservation, and molecular biology.

Python and BioPython Tutorial

Manshi Raghubanshi — Fri, 23 Aug 2013 06:47:40 -0500

A quickstart tutorial that allows to become familiar with the Python language. The exercises expect knowledge of basic concepts of programming. A group of 2nd year computer science students with no previous Python knowledge required 60'-90' to complete the exercises. With about 3 hours time, the exercise is suitable for non-programmers as well.

Bioinformatics Algorithm Demonstrations and Tutorials

Jitendra Narayan — Thu, 29 Aug 2013 09:23:51 -0500

Abstract

This project presents demonstrations of selected computer science algorithms important in bioinformatics, implemented in the spreadsheet program Microsoft Excel. Spreadsheets provide an interesting platform for demonstration of algorithms, since various steps of the calculations can be exposed in a manner that is easily comprehensible to users with little programming experience. The algorithms demonstrated include two approaches to approximate string matching (dynamic programming and Shift-AND numeric approximate matching), Hierarchical Clustering (used in phylogenetic studies and microarray analysis of gene expression), a Naive Bayes Classifier for simulated microarray gene expression data, and a simple Neural Network. These demonstrations are designed to serve as instructional aids in bioinformatics courses.

4273π: Bioinformatics education on low cost ARM hardware

Jitendra Narayan — Mon, 02 Sep 2013 07:02:43 -0500

Are you teaching bioinformatics at universities and found it complicated by typical computer classroom settings. As well as running software locally and online, students should gain experience of systems administration. Hmm don't worry there is one new OS for the rescue. 4273π, an operating system image for Raspberry Pi based on Raspbian Linux. It provides an attractive, general-purpose computing environment, within which the course 4273π Bioinformatics for Biologists is embedded.

Though far slower than current desktop and laptop computers, the Raspberry Pi is notably faster than the Cray 1 supercomputer, a marvel of computer speed in its day. The Raspberry Pi approach includes all the benefits of the laptop approach, above, but at lower cost. In addition, the Raspberry Pi is a new and exciting computer system, which in itself can add interest to the course.

As the Raspbian operating system, Raspberry Pi firmware and hardware and 4273π Bioinformatics for Biologists teaching material develop, further releases of 4273π will be made available. It is anticipated that there will be a minimum of two releases per year during the next four years.

4273π is a means to teach bioinformatics, including systems administration tasks, to undergraduates at low cost.
