CSC 211 - Computational Biology


Semester Hours: 3
Periodically
This course introduces mathematical techniques for design and analysis of algorithms for many central problems in biological sequence analysis and genome analysis. This course is a theoretical course and complements the more applications-oriented course, CSC 213 . The course will cover algorithms and methods in building models for problems in multiple sequence alignment, motif and pattern searches, phylogenetic analysis, genome assembly, and gene prediction, and is designed so that  it can be taken independently of CSC 213 .

Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
CSC 204 , or prmission of instructor. May not be taken on a Pass/Fail basis.
