Description:
Goals
Through this course, students should become familiar with Java programming language. Skills adopted in this course should enable them to solve basic bioinformatic tasks and develop their own algorithms within Eclipse integrated development environment.

Summary
IT skills are among the most wanted ones on the job market today. Biology is not an exception. Programming skills are becoming very important in routine lab work. Java programming language enables relatively fast coding and there is a huge repository of ready-to-use libraries such as BioJava for example. Some common tasks in this new field called bioinformatics include dealing with DNA and protein sequences, translation, query, handling Big Data coming from various high-throughput devices and finally creating custom biological databases.
