Computing for Biomedical Scientists: Course Description
Instructors Dr. Aziz Boxwala, Dr. Omolola Ogunyemi, Dr. Qing Zeng teach this graduate-level OpenCourseWare. 'Computing for Biomedical Scientists' offers students a thorough examination of the topics including the storing and recovery of data inputted in the computer system, as well as the handling of the data to solve problems. Programming algorithms and paradigms are processes that are also explored within the course. The goal of this course is to help students studying Biology apply computer problem-solving technologies to their own research. A basic understanding of computer programming principles is encouraged but not required.
The assignments, lecture notes and project information for 'Computing for Biomedical Scientists' course are all available online. To find out more, check out the computer models of biomedical data course page.
