This will be an introductory course targeted to students from the M. Sc. to post-doctoral levels with either biological or exact sciences backgrounds who wish to acquire skills in Computational Biology. It will have four components:
- Introductory lectures on mathematics and physics for biologists, and biology for exact sciences students (parallel tracks),
- courses on specialized Computational Biology topics ranging from the molecular level to integrated physiological systems,
- seminars on recent developments,
- mini-research projects where the students will have opportunity to apply the acquired skills to realistic research problems.
Illustrative applications will emphasize aging and degenerative diseases.
