The MHS program in Bioinfo


Jointly offered by Dept. Biostatistics and
Molecular Microbiology and
Immunology
An intensive one-year program that
emphasizes biology, statistical
methods, and computing
Goal of the class
•• Learn to look at biological sequences from a
probabilistic point of view
• Understand algorithms behind routine
operations, e.g. BLAST.
• Be able to build statistical model to solve
problems involving sequences

EXONS
INTRONS
Protein-coding genes are not easy to find - gene density is low, and exons are interrupted by introns.
