Learning outcomes

Practice on how to give a talk on a scientific topic in
English and how to discuss scientific findings, with an emphasis on bioinformatics. Learn how to present the topic so that people with different backgrounds (IT or bioscience) and just an elementary knowledge in bioinformatics can all understand. Learn about new findings
and how bioinformatic methods have been applied and/or proven useful in each case.

Contents

Selected journal articles which either a focus on
bioinformatics, or have used bioinformatic methods, or contain discoveries otherwise relevant to bioinformatics.
Modes of study: A series of presentations given by students on recent journal articles. Each student is required to give two short talks (15-20 minutes), with slides, and attend to at least 75 % of the meetings. In the end of the course you must hand in a small learning diary, with summaries of a at least a few sentences of each presentation, or half a page of your own presentations and the presentations you missed, plus a self-evaluation.
