Course title: Introduction to bioinformatics 2
Name in Polish: Wstęp do bioinformatyki 2
Organizational unit: Faculty of Mathematics, Informatics, and Mechanics
Course groups: Obligatory courses for 2nd year Bioinformatics
ECTS credit allocation (and other scores): 4.50 Basic information on ECTS credits allocation principles:
  • the annual hourly workload of the student’s work required to achieve the expected learning outcomes for a given stage is 1500-1800h, corresponding to 60 ECTS;
  • the student’s weekly hourly workload is 45 h;
  • 1 ECTS point corresponds to 25-30 hours of student work needed to achieve the assumed learning outcomes;
  • weekly student workload necessary to achieve the assumed learning outcomes allows to obtain 1.5 ECTS;
  • work required to pass the course, which has been assigned 3 ECTS, constitutes 10% of the semester student load.

Short description:

The lecture and the accompanying computer lab are intended for students of the second year of the macro-course "Bioinformatics and Systems Biology" and for the third year of "Molecular Design and Bioinformatics". They provide the basis for the application of computer science and computational science to the analysis of genes, genomes and proteins.

Full description:

The lecture and the accompanying laboratory provide the basis for the application of computer science and computational science to the analysis of genes, genomes and proteins as also to drug design and systems biology. The framework program is as follows:

1. Structures of biopolymers, and molecular graphics tools.

2. Simulation methods (MM, MC, MD, BD, etc)

3. Protein folding (as process)

4. Modeling of protein structures

5. Protein-protein interactions and interactions …

6. Basics of drug design

7. Omics and data analysis from experiments

8. Literature mining

9. Systems biology (idea)

10. Image information analysis
