Learning Outcome:After successfully completing the module, students will have acquired an introduction to modern bioinformatics and to selected applications from biology and medicine. They understand the methodology through  presentation of the central computational problems and an introduction of solutions based on classical algorithms and statistical machine learning, as well as modern deep learning approaches.
Contents:The focus will be on four fundamental problem areas:
  • Comparing sequences: Sequence alignment algorithms, Genome-scale approaches using index data structures, Alignment-free methods
  • Analyzing gene expression: alignment-based and alignment-free methods to analyzing RNASeq, single-cell analysis
  • Signals in sequences: identification of motifs, accessibility, and modification of DNA
  • Sequence variations and relation to phenotypes: structural variants in disease, pan-genome approaches
Recommended Prerequisites:
  • Basic knowledge of probability and statistics, algorithms and data structures at the undergraduate level
  • Introduction to machine learning at Master’s level
  • Working knowledge of Python
Mandatory Prerequisites:None
