| Bioinformatics is a rapidly expanding field driven by the increasing availability of massive genomic data and the research perspectives of molecular biology and genetics. The purpose of this school is to survey the various aspects of bioinformatics, with attention to the mathematical, statistical and algorithmic aspects known as computational biology. Each presentation will include an introduction to the field, its concepts and general methods, followed by a discussion of current trends in research. Topics will include sequence alignment, the search for biological motifs, RNA structure prediction, genomic rearrangements, sequencing strategies, the analysis of DNA polymorphism, and the inference of metabolic, transcription and regulatory networks from microarray data. The speakers on each topic are all well-known researchers in this area. |
