Course Summary

Computational Biology is an arm of Bioinformatics. It's the computational use of biological information to solve problems. This course will deliver examples in this rapidly evolving field including descriptions of biological databases and relevant tools available to retrieve and analyse the information within these. You will learn how to utilise this data and relate it to protein structure/function and computational drug discovery. This course will enable?you to get a taste of?the current computational biology techniques used in academia and industry. The skills developed will aid those exploring future careers in multi-disciplinary science, particularly Bioinformatics, Biotechnology, and Drug Discovery.
