www.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk - This is about how to use a computer to find what is known about a gene of interest and also how to get new insights about it.
The tutorial is divided in three main parts:
In the Sequence part, you will see how to look efficiently for a...
A while ago we posted a request for online resources on must-read papers in evolutionary biology, for a literature club. We received many answers in the meantime

Genome sequencing projects have enormous potential for benefiting human endeavors. However, just as acquiring a language's vocabulary does not enable one to speak it, databases that list the amino acid composition of proteins do not directly tell us...
Almost all the scripting languages such as Perl, Python etc have built-in sort, but unfortunately none of them are as flexible as sort command. But one when it come to space efficiency GNU sort stands at the top. It can sort a 20Gb file with less...
