Objective of the course
To give the students an introduction to the genomes and genomics of organisms. To develop insight into the use of bioinformatic instruments for assembly and annotation and further insight about tools for functional tasks such as micro-array and modelling. To develop understanding about how bioinformatics can be used as a tool to design experimental experiments and analyse results.
