<p>Ph.D. Programme in Computational Biology</p>

<p>For students interested in frontier research at the interface of biology, computation, physics and applied mathematics</p>

<p>IMSc is a leader in India in fundamental research in theoretical physics, mathematics and theoretical computer science, with several members actively pursuing research in interdisciplinary areas including computational biology.   In 2013 IMSc started a unique Ph.D. programme in this subject, training students to apply cutting-edge computational and mathematical techniques to problems in modern biology, in collaboration with leading biology departments and institutions in India and abroad.  <br />IMSc  is an autonomous national research institute under the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India, and a constituent institution of the Homi Bhabha National Institute (HBNI), Mumbai (a deemed university).   Ph.D. degrees will be awarded by HBNI.<br />STRUCTURE OF PROGRAMME<br />Before embarking on their research, students have three semesters of coursework, which consists of seven core courses, to be carried out at IMSc; elective courses, which may be taken at IMSc or at other institutions by mutual consent; and lab rotations, at collaborating labs in other institutions. The core coursework covers essentials of modern biology, essential techniques from physics, mathematics, statistics and computer science, physics of proteins and biomolecules, biological sequence analysis and algorithms, and systems biology. Elective coursework covers various topics in greater depth. Following the coursework and a comprehensive examination, students will embark on research leading to a Ph.D. degree.<br />Selected candidates will be research fellows at IMSc and will receive fellowships, housing or house rent allowance, and contingency grants.</p>

	<title><![CDATA[Smash: An alignment-free method to find and visualise rearrangements between pairs of DNA sequences]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Smash is a completely alignment-free method/tool to find and visualise genomic rearrangements</strong><span>. The detection is based on&nbsp;</span><strong>conditional exclusive compression</strong><span>, namely using a FCM (Markov model), of high context order (typically 20). For visualisation, Smash outputs a&nbsp;</span><strong>SVG image</strong><span>, with an&nbsp;</span><strong>ideogram</strong><span>output architecture, where the patterns are represented with several&nbsp;</span><strong>HSV values</strong><span>&nbsp;(only value varies). The method can perform both in small- and large-scale. Nevertheless is more directed to large-scale since that the main aim of the research is to&nbsp;</span><strong>know where the large-scale [chromosomal by chromosome] of several primates was equal/different, having at a glance a map of the entire genomes</strong><span>.</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://bioinformatics.ua.pt/software/smash/" rel="nofollow">http://bioinformatics.ua.pt/software/smash/</a></p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>This is the <code>andi</code> program for estimating the evolutionary distance between closely related genomes. These distances can be used to rapidly infer phylogenies for big sets of genomes. Because <code>andi</code> does not compute full alignments, it is so efficient that it scales even up to thousands of bacterial genomes.</p>
<p>This readme covers all necessary instructions for the impatient to get <code>andi</code> up and running. For extensive instructions please consult the <a href="https://github.com/EvolBioInf/andi/blob/master/andi-manual.pdf">manual</a>.</p>
