Welcome


Welcome to ABC - the web site of Applied Bioinformatics Course. We'll learn, step by step, the ABCs of: And lots more!

How we learn

We will run the course in a training room (see the above picture). Each student will have a PC with both Linux and Windows installed. We start with simple Linux commands and the WebLab bioinformatics platform developed by CBI, to get familiar with dozens of bioinformatics tools through hands-on practice. We will do a lot of exercises for sequence alignment, database similarity search, motif finding, gene prediction, as well as phylogenetic tree construction and molecular modeling. Finally, we will focus on several projects to solve real biological problems. You are also encouraged to bring your own problems to discuss and, hopefully, to solve during the course!

What you need before the course

What you gain from the course

Don't expect to become a bioinformatics expert, but you will know:

Half day on the Web, saves you half month in the lab!
