Information for students

This is an elective course (Wahlpflichtveranstaltung) for students in the MSc Bioinformatics.

The modul consists of a lecture, a seminar and exercises which will be blocked according to the respective topic. This means we will have first several lectures, followed by exercises, followed by seminars. One block is concluded with a review test about the content.

Content: We will start with an intro into compact data structures and vectorized computing. Then we will deal with methods for approximate searching and variant detection in sequences, the construction and use of modern index structures and methods for RNA sequence analysis and variant detection.

Requirements for "aktive Teilnahme":

  • You have to be prepared to give a seminar talk (if it's your group's turn).
  • In addition you need to reach 50% of all points of the reviews.

Seminar group A: Baukmann, Beslic, Dawid, Habibolahi
Seminar group B: Kaplan, Korzec, Kranz, Krause
Seminar group C: Mengüllüoglu, Ravishankar, Shell, Sheshadri
Seminar group D: Sliwa, Sullivan,Tiwar, Toom
