Bioinformatics for molecular biology - Fall 2010

Description

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 work. Students are encouraged to bring a lap-top; we will be set up for in-course demonstrations as well as practical lab exercises. The course is intended for biology students or computer science/math students. No prior background in bioinformatics or computer science is required.

The course is jointly delivered by the Biotechnology Centre of Oslo, the Department of Molecular Biosciences (IMBV), the Department of Informatics (IFI) and the Norwegian University of Life Sciences. This course is one of the Ph.D. School courses offered by the Biotechnology Centre of Oslo (http://www.biotek.uio.no/ny-web/events/). The UiO page for this course is http://www.uio.no/studier/emner/matnat/molbio/MBV-INF4410/.

Registration will be open in May of 2010. Check back here for details

MBV-INF 4410 (M.Sc. level course code)10.0 study points

MBV-INF 9410 (Ph.D. level course code) 10.0 study points

MBV-INF 9410A (Ph.D. level course code) 8.0 study points

The course consists of two weeks of lectures, a final take-home exam (one week) and an essay (M.Sc. level 10 pages and Ph.D. level 20 pages to be completed by end of October).

Ph.D. level students may opt to take the course without the essay for only 8 study points.

Please bookmark this page. All future changes or announcements for the 2010 course will be posted to this page.

Written assignment

Please note:
The displayed essay topics are from last year as an example. 
The 2010 course assignments will be different.

Students enrolled in MBV-INF 4410 must complete a written assignment as part of the course requirements.

The assignment is due by October 27th. It should be emailed to ian.donaldson at biotek.uio.no preferably as a PDF document (Microsoft Word or OpenOffice is also acceptable). The assignment is to be between 1000 to 2000 words and no more than 10 pages. Topics include:


1) write an explanation of three or more methods that were covered in the course. These should be simple explanations aimed at someone approaching the topic for the first time. Your explanation may include derivations of equations (if they are clearly explained), figures or tables. Use examples. Describe how the concept can be applied to a problem in biological research and what limitations the method has. List any resources you use as well as references to additional material that a student might use if they want to follow up on the topic further. Please indicate whether your material may be used on the course's wiki page.


2) describe how you would use two or more of the methods covered in the course in your own research. Your proposal may include figures or tables. Give a short introduction to your problem area, clearly state your hypothesis and how you think it might be addressed by each of the methods. Provide justifications for your proposal as well as expected outcome. Describe potential risks (say, the method provides no meaningful results) and what you would do to mitigate this risk. List any resources you use.


3) you may define your own alternative topic. Please send an email to ian.donaldson at biotek.uio.no to have your topic approved first.

Exam

Please note:
The exam for this course will be a one week take home exam.
