Learning objectives:
  To understand the principles of molecular biology. To perceive the basic used algorithms and to well informed about relevant biological databases. To be able to design new effective methods for biological data analysis.
Description:
  This course introduces students to basic principles of molecular biology, present algorithms pro biological data analysis, describes their time complexity and shows direction how to design the new methods very effectively. Particularly, the following algorithms will be discussed: methods for sequence alignment, evolutionary models, construction of phylogenetic trees, algorithms for gene identification using machine learning and approaches for prediction of 2D and 3D protein structure. Lectures will be supplement with practical examples using available biological databases.
Subject specific learning outcomes and competences:
  Students will be able to take advantages of large biological database and design new efficient algorithms for their analysis.
Generic learning outcomes and competences:
  Understanding the relations between computers (computing) and selected molecular processes.

Controlled instruction:
  Presence in any form of instruction is not compulsory. An absence (and hence loss of points) can be compensated in the following ways: 
  1. presence in another laboratory group dealing with the same task. 
  2. showing a summary of results to the tutor at the next lab. 
  3. sending a short report (summarizing the results of the missed lab and answering the questions from the assignment) to the tutor, in 14 days after the missed lab.
Progress assessment:
  Mid-term exam, project, computer lab assignments.
Exam prerequisites:
  None.
