CSHL Course: Advanced Bioinformatics

高级生物信息学2005-2009冷泉港高级生物信息学实验课程的目标是为生物学家提供处理基因组信息爆炸所需的知识和工具。作为对BLAST等最终用户工具的培训的补充，本课程教授研究人员如何通过创建脚本、数据库和其他软件系统来负责他们的数据、管理数据和操纵数据。这个为期14天的课程是为具有过程编程基础知识的学生和研究人员设计的，将教授面向对象的Perl脚本及其在复杂分析管道的设计、构建和管理中的应用。该课程结合了正式的讲座和动手实验，学生在其中解决一系列问题集，这些问题集来自生物数据采集，整合和实验室管理的常见场景。学生们还被鼓励用自己的数据提出问题，并与教师一起解决问题。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): ADVANCED BIOINFORMATICS 2005-2009 The goal of the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Course in Advanced Bioinformatics is to provide biologists with the knowledge and tools they need to deal with the genomic information explosion. Complementary to training in end-user tools such as BLAST, this course teaches researchers how to take charge of their data, manage it and manipulate it by creating scripts, databases and other software systems. Designed for students and researchers with basic knowledge of procedural programming, this 14 day course will teach object-oriented Perl scripting and its use in the design, construction and management of complex analysis pipelines. The course combines formal lectures with hands-on laboratories in which students solve a series of problem sets drawn from common scenarios in biological data acquisition, integration, and laboratory management. Students are also encouraged to pose problems using their own data and to work together with faculty to solve them.
