Lisätiedot
The Minor in Computational Biology provides knowledge on how to design and implement models of biological systems. Also, it teaches how to use computational tools for biological data analysis.
The Minor in Computational Biology is a valuable, complementary knowledge for students of Signal Processing and Software Engineering that aim to apply their efforts to study biological/medical topics as well as for students of biological/biotechnological/medical degrees that aim to perform modeling of biological systems or make use of computational methods, e.g. from Signal Processing, such as image and statistical analysis.
The Minor in Computational Biology is highly multi-disciplinary in that it provides knowledge in Computational Biology, along with knowledge from the areas of Signal Processing, Machine Learning and Experimental Biology..
