Bioinformatics at the University of Oslo

Bioinformatics xxx: A course in bioinformatics for molecular biology (8.0 credit points)

The aim of the course is to introduce students to bioinformatics resources and tools for molecular biology research by having some of the best researchers in Norway to talk about their field in general and then present their own data. Students are encouraged to bring a lap-top; we will be set up for in-course demonstrations as well as practical lab excercises. The course is intended for biology students. No prior background in bioinformatics or computer science is required.

Please bookmark this page. All future changes or announcements for the 2009 course will be posted to this page.

Registration is not yet open.
