Fundamental Bioinformatician Course in Python
About This Course
Fundamental Bioinformatician Course in Python Allows You To Develop The Basic Bioinformatician & Programming Skills in Python
Being a Bioinformatician means you’ve to learn how to retrieve and analyze biological data in the most efficient way, to learn how to align & analyze biological sequences to predict the evolutionary histories between them, to find out the conserved patterns, to learn how to predict coding regions or genes from a raw nucleotide sequence, and much more.
To efficiently deal with huge genomic and proteomic data often requires writing short scripts or patches of code to computationally analyze the biological datasets, rather than comparing and analyzing such huge datasets manually. Hence, the major part of Bioinformatics involves computationally analyzing biological datasets.
The simple syntax and high-level data structures of Python, make it easier for nonprofessional programmers such as computational biologists to develop programming skills, enabling them to interact with data programmatically and eventually develop code on their own.
In this course you’ll learn the very basics of most commonly utilized biological databases, how to find conserved and variable regions within sequence alignments & analysis and do evolutionary & phylogenetic analysis. You’ll also be able to learn various concepts related to how to write your first script, Python data structures such as lists, strings, dictionaries and more. Along with, how to read/write Bioinformatics files, work with loops and how to control the flow of your program and script.
Joining and learning from the Fundamental Bioinformatician Course in Python can enhance your biological career by learning through various useful & informative pre-recorded lectures on Bioinformatics tools, databases, servers and biological programming languages.
Learning Objectives
Target Audience
- The target audience for the Basic Bioinformatician Course in Python are biologists, beginner or intermediate Bioinformaticians or data analysts with no or little experience in applications of computational bioinformatics and analysis.
- However, a superficial understanding of molecular biology and logic development for coding is expected from you before you join the course.
- Bioinformatics is quite easy to get started in, even if you lack a proper understanding of the underlying concepts of Bioinformatics databases, servers, tools and the algorithms working behind them.
