CS2220: Introduction to Computational Biology
Instructor: Limsoon Wong / 2007/2008 Semester 2 / IVLE

• Lecture is held every Friday @ 2pm in COM1 Room 212
• Tutorial is held every Monday @ 2pm in COM1 Room 207

• The goals of CS2220 (Introduction to Computational Biology) are: (1) development of flexible and logical problem solving skills; (2) understanding of main bioinformatics problems; and (3) appreciation of main techniques and approaches to bioinformatics. To achieve the goals above, we expose the students to a series of case studies spanning gene feature recognition, gene expression and proteomic analysis, gene finding, sequence homology interpretation, phylogeny analysis, physical mapping, and genome sequencing
