Cíle předmětu
The aim of this course is to give an introduction to Bioinformatics. Bioinformatics covers different computer applications in biological sciences and in its broadest sense the Bioinformatics means information technology applied to the management and analysis of biological data. The course will consist of theoretical part followed by practical training using computers and Internet. An introduction will be given to the theory of genome and protein information resources, to the DNA and protein sequence analysis, to the organization and searching of primary and secondary databases, etc. In its practical part, the course will demonstrate a number of the programs on the Internet that are used most commonly in DNA and proteomic research.
